Thedial sight,when issued,is in correctadjustment,water-tight, and with all the cells and joints securedwith fixinigscrews.

It is very unlikely that the interior will require cleaning,and the dial sight must on no accountbe taken to pieces,exceptby aperson in possessionof an OrdnanceCollegecer-

- tificato statingthat ho is competentto do so.The body of the dial sight shouldbe cleanedwith a clean

soft cloth anda little oil, whichmust berubbedoff afterwards,care being taken that theglass is not touched. No grittysubstanceshould be used.

3. THE BREECH MECHANISM.

(i) General precautions.

Time- breech mechanismsimommid be dismantledperiodicallyin orderthat it maybethoroughlycleaned.

The tlureadsof the breechscrewshould befree from burrs.Simomuld tinescrewnot work easilywhentheobturatorhasbeendetached,thedefectmay often be remediedby careful filingby an artilicer, but no portion of the thread should bo cutawayto m-enmove a crack.

Tine brecclm should be kept covered up when possible topreventdust and grit getting into the- breechfittings. Acoveris provided for this purpose.

Time obturating pad should be examined to se-c that thecanvascoveringis intactandin workingorder. If thecanvascoveris found to belooseor to overlapcitimerof tineprotectingdiscs, the obtumratorshould be- changed. -

Time sparepadshouldbe ide-lit undercompressionin theboxobtmurator.

The protecting discs should be care-frilly examined andsimould be re-placedif time steel rings are eroded, burred orcracked.

When fitting the pad and discs en time axial vent, caremust be taken that they are assembledin tine correct order.The face of time pad marked “ front” shouldbe towardstimemuzzle. One or more steeladjustingdiscs may be re-qumiredbetweentheobturator andtime face-of the breech screwwhen

Toascertainthis, lightly cover time- seatingwitim a mixture- ofoil and tallow; closeandopenthe breech; time outerend oftine padsimouidbe coveredwithm gm-easefromn contact with tinegreasedseatingof time chamber. If it is found that the pad(lees not fit time scatimmg closely, atijusting discs sinould bemudded until the bmcc-cim closes with sommne difficulty.

4. RECUPERATOR AND BUFFER.

General precautions.

(1.) Before tiring.Care should be taken to see tlnuit tIne recuperatom-amid

It is necessaryto strainthe oil beforechargingthe re-cu.peratoror buffer.

During severe- weather, re-cope-ratersand buffers shouldbeprotectedasnmucim aspossible-from time cold.

5. THE RECUPERATOR.(1.) Generalprecautions. -

Before removing the re-cuperator cotter the apparatussecuringthe re-cuperatorrain must befixed.

The gun must never be fired if the anmount of leakageindicatedby thetail rod exceeds8 pints, or if theair pressureis below350 lbs. a sq. in.

59

(ii.) To chargetherecuperatorwith liquid.

Se-cure the gun to time cradle by the buffer locking pinand elevate tine gun about 5 degree-s. Discharge any airpressurein time- air cylinder by renmoving the closing plugand openingthe by-passvalve-. Pushthe tail rod into tineair cylimmder as far as it will go. lie-move the filling andair holeplugs.

Pour oil timrougha funnel into tine- filling hole until it over-flows at timeair hole. Re-placetime plugs.

About 32 pints of oil are requiredto fill the recuperator.

(iii.) To chargethe recuperatorwith air.

Secumretime grin to time cradleby tine buffer locking pin andelevatethe gun about5 degrees. Removethe c-losing plugandconnectup time pressuregaugeandair pump.

Slackenthe filling plug one- turn and allow liquid to escapeuntil time tail rod indicator i-cads zero. Screwup the fillingholeplug.

Close the by-pass valve, disconnectthe pipe- from theadapterand placethecap on time adapter. Let time pressuredownslowly to 475 lbs. per sq. in. by openingthe- by-passvalve slightly and slaclcnngback the cap on thme atlapter.

When the pressurereads475 lbs., closetheby-passvalve,tighten the locking nut, remnovethe adapterwith pressurogaugeandreplacetheclosingplug.

(iv.) To test the air pressure.

Re-movethe closing plug and attach the adapteranti pres-sure gauge. Blank the outer end of the adapterwith time

If the pressureis correct, close time by-passvalve-, tiglmtenthe- lockinmg nut, renimove theadapterand gauge and me-placethe closinmgplug. If time pressureis below350 lbs., closetheby-passvalve, eonmmectup the air pumnp arid maico up thepressureto 475 lbs.(v.) To replenishair pressurelost by leakage.

6. THE BUFFER.(1.) To fill thebutter.

Re-nimove the air and filling hole plugs in tine top of tinetank amid elevatethegun about5 degrees. Pressiii tine airre-leasevalve and pour oil imito the taimk until it oven-flowsat tine air releasevalve-, lie-leasethevalve, fill the tanic, andreplacetheair andfilling hole plugs.

About 12 gallons of oil are required to fill the buffer andtank.(ii.) To empty the buffer. -

Elevate- time guru about5 degrees. Removetime air mobplug of the tank andthedrain plug of the-buffer cylinder,andrun the-oil off.

If it is desired to ennpty tine buffer completely, tine- gunis depressedandthestuffing box removed.

62

(iii.) To tighten the gland.Lay time gun hon-izontal. Disengagetime- locking plunger

amid tighmtonthe out-er gland by meansof the spannerpro-vide-cl. Re-engagetime ioclcingplunger.

The glandshould not be over-tightenedasthis mnaycauseseizure.

(iv.) To renew the packing in the buffer gland.Emnpty time buffer and elevatetime- gun about 5 degrees.

Proceedas in section 6 (iv); after re-moving the glands,remove time locking plate and unscrew the stuffing box,together with the defective packing and supporting ring.Renewthe packing. Replacethe supporting ring, packingand stuffing box. Re-assembleand refill the- buffer. -

7. THE AIR PUMP.A dust cover is provided with the pump. The cover

afteractionmamid closevalveA to preventdirt andgrit enteringtime cylinder wincmm standing. Open again wine-n punttingthepunmmp into action and set the sight feed lubricator to giveeig!mt drips per minute.

Before chargingtherecuperatorit is advisableto test thepump systenm as follows :—Close the air chmargimig valve ofthe re-cupe-rater. Work time- PUiiiP slowly until the gaugeregisters500 lbs. per sq.in. If tine systemis in good worlcingorderthe gaugehamid should remain stationary,or emily cmecpbacic very slowly. Should time inammd fall back quicicly thesystem shouldbe e-xauninedfor externalfaults. Faultsmaybe- located by smearing wimeel gm-easeover time joints ; airbubble-swill beobservedwheretimere is a leak. -

Greatcareshould be exercisedin usimig the gauge. Whentakimmg or releasingpressurethevalveshouldbeopenedgentlyin orderto preventdamageto the- gauge. -

If the pumponly give-s20 lbs. pressure,valvesB andC arefaulty. If the pump only gives 200 lbs. pressurevalve Dis faulty. If no air is delivered valve A is faulty. If the -

valve-sareprove-ti to be in order, look to thepackingrings of -

time piston. In thee-ventof valve P going out of order,andno spare-sbeinga~ailabbe,replaceit with valve B ; valve Cshouldnot be usedfor tlmis purpose. -

If neccssarythe- valves should be lightly ground in andcoatedwith thin oil.
