The best way to clean the commutator is to insert a fine duster, held by means of a suitably shaped piece of wood against the commutator surface, slowly rotating the armature by the starting handle at the same time.

The jet is so mounted that it may readily he moved up or down relative to the tapered needle, in order to weaken or strengthen the mixture over the whole working range, by a lever operated from the mixture control lever on thebnear side of
