9080CAPVT IV.
Alſo a little above that ciſtern goes the Pipe E,
which
conveys water from the Force Pipe into D, the
leſſer
Boyler, which is there placed to repleniſh the
great
Boyler L, when the Water in it begins to be al-
moſt
conſumed.
Now when there is need of doing
this
, turn the Cock E ſo, that there can be no commu-
nication
between the Force Pipe S, and theleſſer Boy-
ler
D, and putting in a little Fire, at B2, the Water the-
re
will grow preſently hot;
and when it boils, its own
Steam
, which hath no vent out, preſſing on its ſurface,
will
force the Water up the Pipe H, trough K, into
the
great Boyler L, and ſo long will it run, till the ſur-
face
of the Water in the Boyler D, get to be as low,
as
the bottom of the Pipe H, and then the Steam and
Water
will run together, and by its Noiſe and Ratling
of
the Clack 1, will giue him that worcks the Engine,
ſufficient
aſſurance, that D hath emptied and diſchar-
ged
it ſelf into L, and carried in as much Water, as is
then
neceſſary, after which by turning the Cock I a-
gain
, you may let new cold Water out of S into D the
leſſer
Boiler as before:
and thus will there be a con-
ſtant
motion, and a continual ſupply of the Engine,
without
fear of Decay or diſorder.
Alſo to know whether L want repleniſhing or not,
you
need only turn the Cock N, and if Water come
out
, there is no need to repleniſh;
but if Steam only
come
, you may conclude, there is.
And the like will
the
Cock G do, in reference to the leſſer Boyler D,
ſhewing
when tis neceſſary to ſypply that with freſh
water
from S, ſo that in working the Engine there is
very
little Skill or labour required, it being only to
be
injured by either a ſtupid, or wilful neglect of
