Once
you've
set up the figures
you
can
add, subtract, multiply
or divide merely
by turning the crank.
To turn, first
pull
out the
handle
(as
indicated by arrow) and keep
it out
until the required
amount of
turns have been complered.
AII turning movements should be carried
out smoothly and evenly, not
jerkily.

After cranking
the necessary number of turns the crank must
be
returned to its neutral
position
before the mechanism can
be cleared
and a new calculating operation begun.
