GEAR HOUSINGS The cleaning of the â€" transmission case, the rear axle (differentigql) hous ing and, in some constructions, the clutch anq timing gear compartments at suitable intervals is most importâ€" ant. Gear box lubricant is likely, in time, to collect particlee of metal chipped from the gears by careless shifting, which, if they get into the bearings, are very apt to do serious injury. f ‘In most cars there is a plugged opening at the bottom of the housâ€" ing. out of which the lubricant can ‘In most cars there is a plugged opening at the bottom of the ‘housâ€" ing, out of which the lInbricant can be drawn and discarded, after which the plug can be replaced and keroâ€" sene supplied in the case.

Practically the tire Canadian outpuut, of courseé in this province. Today there are nine large tire factories in Ontario, employing thous ands of men in the manufacture of automobile tires, with two other facâ€" tories in the course of construction. Each working day these are turning out some 9,000 completed automobile tires. One factory alone at New Toronto is producing 3,000 with the prospect of doubling this production during the coming year. In 1920 all Canada‘s tire factories combined will produce about 2,000,000 automobile tires. This will be an increase Oof about 40 per cent. over the previous vear. Whenever the car is in motion this rear axle is in the scene of intense mechanical activi‘ty. The function of this part is not only to help â€" carry the weight of the car but also to transmit the power. Rear axles fall readily into two disâ€" tinct clamifimfions,;:de@%;g;?@r«% live ones. It is live axles w ici’ ire used on all modern passenger CaTs. The term "live" simply means that the axle turns. Dead axles do not turn and they are only used on vehiâ€" cles having double chain drive. When we come to examine live axles we find it necessary to classify them still further into three minor classes, known respectively as floatâ€" wing, semiâ€"floating and threeâ€"quarter fAnatins. A further â€" classification gearing used to transmit the power. The live axle consists principally of a hollow spheroid, from which pro ject on either side, two tubes. In the central spheriod is located the difâ€" ferential unit embodying a number of gears. From the differential â€"proâ€" ject two shafts, which occupy the tubes projecting from the central spheroid of the rear axle. At the ends of these shafts the wheels are attached. The classification of floating, semiâ€" floating and threeâ€"quarter â€" floating are derived frmo the method used in attaching the wheels to the shafts. The floating axle does do very nearly ‘that thing. It is not called upon to bear any of the weight of the car, it simply transmits the power to the wheels and takes a litâ€" tle of the torsional or twisting stresâ€" ses. The floating axle has its bearâ€" ings outside the tube, so that the wheels really rest on the tubes and not on the shafts. In this type of axle the shafts may be removed without Cns sestÂ¥ b tin es oo tÂ¥ ... e o “%} Th . s ts T atiie dn Te THE REAR AXLI M "m"‘ P / tA MR i ith ng |a urthe: ordin trans uh C NK ko 15 W sad & LLT‘\‘ | W CÂ¥ % $ -s.

Apply brakes with care and only when necessaiy. Use the engine in place of ‘brakes whenever possible. Stop your car in such a position that the tires will not rub or chafe against the curbing when you start. Be sure the wheels are carefully aligned. * Avoid jerks when starting your Keep oils and acids away from your I tires, for if exposed to either for any length of time they will become worth less. Injuries so caused are often not noticed until after the damage is done. If oil drops on the tires, wipe it off immediately and be sure your car is not left standing on an oily floor in a garage. Keep your clincher rims free from rust and sharp edges. tm woOI Car owners who anticipate travelâ€" ing over stretches of bad road can lighten their troubles shoulg they get stuck by > using a roll of ordinary chicken wire. This can be easily strapped on the rear of the car. Should you strike a patch of practicâ€" ally impassable road which would inâ€" dicate the stalling of the maching, stretch the wire down over the surâ€" face of the road and run your car to a point of safety on solid ground.
