Image Description:
Ferracutte Power Press-Forcing Arbors out of Bushes.
Broaching Bushes.
The broaching is done on geared Ferracute presses, "D. G.—54," 8 inches stroke, one man only to each press. Operations are: pick up bushing with left hand; pick broach out of tray under press bolster, with right hand; enter broach in bushing, both hands; hold bushing in place under press slide with right hand; depress clutch treadle with right foot (the broach shank is made long enough to carry broach teeth all the way through the work, so that the broach drops down into the pan); finally, with right hand, place broached piece in tray.
