This booklet describes briefly the well known Ball Planetary Transmission Gear and Jack Shafts. We call your attention to the important and practical features to this Gear and Shaft by a few illustrations.

We are the oldest manufactures of the all Spur Planetary Transmission, being the inventors and first to construct and operate a successful planetary Gear of this type. Although our earlier Gears met with most gratifying success, changes have been made where experience has shown it necessary in order to meet the extra demands put upon the Gear. By being able to fulfill and even exceed these additional requirements, the Ball Gear has successfully continued its superiority and leadership.

The Clutch is one of the main features of this Gear. We have been furnishing this type of clutch for a number of years and experience has taught us that this cone clutch gives the best satisfaction. The Clutch has only one adjusting part and that is in sight at all times. It is built for strength and durability combined with simplicity as shown in the cuts.

"Perhaps you would be interested in knowing that this Transmission and car have been run very nearly five years, fully 35,000 miles, without repair or replacement of any transmission parts."

The Ball Transmission Gears are manufactured under the most careful supervision of competent mechanics, and all the parts are made perfectly interchangeable by the use of jigs and gauges and automatic machinery, in the most up to date manner. All Gears are made of the best grade of steel for this purpose, and box hardened by the most approved method, and the bearing surfaces ground.
