Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The Marshall barring engine at Mill Meece Pumping Station. This small twin-cylinder engine is used to turn the main Hathorn Davey engine for starting. The worm reduction gear from the crankshaft is in the base of the cylindrical casting, behind the mop bucket. The central vertical shaft from the worm wheel carries a bevel gear which in turn drives the bevel gear visible under the arched top bearing bracket. This bevel drives the pinion (behind the handrail stanchion). The short shaft carrying these gears is mounted in a frame pivoted on the vertical centre shaft so that the pinion can be swung into engagement with the teeth on the main engine flywheel by means of a lever at the front of the barring engine. The blue steel clad pipe on the right is the exhaust from the barring engine
