IMPULSE PIN
Figure 1
The impulse pin on the balance, when
moving clockwise, engages with the
fork on the lever and moves the
lever counterclockwise . The pin "D"
on the lever, engages with the index
wheel and moves the index wheel
forward
approximately 3f4 of one
tooth. The magnets (A, B and C)
attract the tips of the index wheel
teeth and move the wheel forward
the remaining lj4 tooth. The magnet
(Cl also attracts the draw lever on
the index lever and holds the index
lever in
place .
Figure 2
If, for any reason, the index wheel is
not positioned correctly by the mag-
nets, pin "E" on the lever turns the
index wheel to its correct position so
that the next engagement of pin "D"
(actuated by a clockwise rotation of

wheel correctly.
Setting friction for the dial t(ain is
provided by a spring connecting the
friction pinion and the third wheel.
The third wheel and friction pinion
may be separated by lifting the fric-
tion pinion with tweezers .
This will unsnap the friction pinion
from the friction spring.
The friction for the dial frame is
provided
by a spring connecting the
friction pinion and the third wheel.
The third wheel and friction pinion
