GENERAL INSTRUCTiONS.
Practicalinstruction in the equipmentshouldbe given toeach recruitboforo any’ attempt is madeto instruct him ingun drill. In teachingthedutiesof eq9hman at thegun,
- the instructor should try to do so by roasoningrather than~ by a long explanationin words. By meansof questionsp he should try to draw froth the recruit the Correct~, answersasto his duties,beingcarefulto loadtheman’smind~ into the desiredchannelof thought. Shouldthis attempt~ fail, theinstructorshould give a demonstrationemphasizing> thepointstherecruithasnot grasped. Suchdemonstrations~ should dealwith the work of eachmanin thedetachment;~ andall menunderinstructionshould, in turn, carry out the
- ~3 work of eachparticularman.~) Instructionin gun drill shouldbegiven assoon asthemen
areconvorsantwith all partsof theequipment,andcanhandlein thebestandquickestmannereachof theworkingpartsofthe gun. Oncethe work of eachman hasbeenthoroughlymastered,it should not takelong for the recruit to learnthe actualdrill.
It is mostimportant that a markeddistinctionshould bedrawn betweeninstructionanddrill.
During the former the languageusedshould be as simpleaspossible,andthe meaningof all technicaltermswhicharenecessarymust be carefully explained. A conversationaltone should be adoptedand in no circumstanceswhatever

should anythingin the natureof long quotationsfrom drillbooksbe allowed. Themen should be permittedto assumean easyattitude andtheir interest should not be allowedto flag. They should beencouragedto ask questions.
At drill, on thecontrary, rigid- discipline must be main.tamed,ordersmustbeclearanddecisive,andthedetachmentsmadeto work steadily, smartlyand rapidly. At the sametime the utmost accuracyis essentialand any deviationsfrom the methodslaid down mustat once be checked.

4. RECUPERATOR AND BUFFER.
General Precautions.
(i) Before firing.
Care simould be tnmkeir to see tinat time- recuperatorammdbuffer are ~correetiyemerged,that tine-re is no leakage attime stuffing-boxes, that time- isolating valve- is open, thmnmtthe cylinder block is firmly nuttedup to the lug e-f the gun,ammd time- pistoim rods to time front cap, and that tire emit-offgearis in acijimstment-.
It is ne-ce-ssnnryto stra~ntine oil before chargingtime recu-peratoror briffer.
Drmring severeweatirer, reemmperatorsaird buffers sinouldbe protectedas mueim mrs possiblefrom tine- cold.
Any operationsfor the- replacementof worn or defectiveparts rvlmiclr necessitateemptying time re-coil system shouldbe carried ommt only under qualified simpervision.
(ii) In action
During action time functioning of time system simould becarefmmIlywatchedand stepstalccmm at onceto remedydefects,
‘70
the punrp commnce-tion and adapter, and re-place- plug L.Careshouid be take-nto see that the rccuperatoris correctlychargedas too mmcm oil will causeseriousdamageand putthe- gun out of action. When correctly chargedit shouldcontain6~pints of buffer oiL
(ii) To charge the recuperator with air.
Be-fore chargimig withn air it is important to see tirat these-curingcollar is on time re-cope-raterpistomn,imr orderto preventtime pistonm from being fore-ed out to time- rear wimerm underpressure,and that time correct quamutity of liquid is inn thei-ce-operator. Time-mr proceed as follows: Attach timeair pump to the- bracketon tine- trail, re-moveplug H mmdattach tire adaptermmmd pressuregauge; connect time purmmppipe to time adapter,opeim mit valve K and pmirnp ummtii timegaugeregisters600 lbs. a sq. mm. (Mark111* ansi IV, 630 lbs. asq. in.). Ciu~e-valve K, disconnecttimepipefrom the adapter,and place tite cap omi tine adapter. Open valve- K, slackback time cap omn tine- adaintcrandre-leasepressureuntil tiregaugeshows 5S0 lbs. a sq. ic. (Mark flf* and IV, 600 lbs. asq. in.). Close valve K, rcnrove time- adapterwith pressuregauge,andreplaceplug H. Tinelaslungmaymow ho re-nnOved.
Wire-n charging by air bottle-, care must be taken to openthe cock gradually to avoid damagingtime gauge.
(iii) To test the air pressure.
Seetlrat time tail rod of tine floating piston is in time correctposition. Removeplug H and screwin the adapter,blankingtheouterendwith time cap. Screwtine- gaugeinnto tireadapter.Open valve K when the gauge should register 580 ibs. asq. in. (Mark 1I1~and IV, 600 lbs. a sq. in ). If correct,
71
close- valve K, removethe adaptormmd gauge and reinlacoplug H. If the pressure is not correct,proceedasin (vi).
(iv) To test and adjust for liquid in air cylinder.
Secure-tine- germ to time cradle-andelevateto about25 degrees,re-move “plug adapter” (Ii) and open “air valve-” (K)oneturn. If air alone-escape-stire-reis no leakage; closethe-valve. Should liquid show allow it all to escape- beforeclosing time valve-.
Ro-e-irargo with air in tine mmsmmal way, up to time correctpre-ssmmre.
If leakageof oil into time- air cylinder continuesthepee-kingsof the- floating pistosn must be examined,and re-placed jfnecessary.
(v) To test and adjust for aeration of liquid In recupera-tom’.
Place time gun lnorizontal, r-enievo “plug, recupe-rator,filling “ (L) andopen time “ oil filling valve“ (M) very slightly.if liquid flows, close time valve-, hint, if frotlm appears,air hasleaked into tine liquid. Allow time froth to blow out untilliquid flows, tine-ri close thevalve and makeimp loss of oil jimthe-usualmanner.
Shouldtime- amountof froth be-excessive,it will benecessaryto strip thh recmmperatorand to examine the packings, re-placing any that may bedefective-. - -
(vi) To replenish air pressure lost by leakage.
Proceoci mrs for charging the rccuperatorwith air, butbefore openingvalve K to admit air, pump pressure-in pipe-
72
to 580 lbs. a sq. in. (Mark 111* and IV, 600 lbs. a sq. in.),
andseetimat time- correctarmnoummtof liqnrid is in timerecuperator.
(vii) To replenish liquid lostby leakagewithout releas-ing the air pressure.
Leakage from the r-e-e-uperator,if not excessive-,can bemacic up by meansof tire se-re-is’ pump. It is not necessaryto re-leasetheair pre-ssurofor thispurpose.Proceedasfollows:Tine- pump shorrid ho filled, turned nozzle upwards, and afew turns given to tine screw in order to remove any - air.Removeplug L andscrewthe pump into placein thefillinghole. Open valve M and operate- tire pump by moans ofthe handle. If necessarytine operationshould be- repeated;valve M mostbeclosedon eacim occasionbe-forethe operationcan be repeated.androust also be closedon cure-In occasionbefore re-moving the punmp Oil shomnid 1e pumpedin untiltime tail rod of tine floating piston is flush with tine rear endof the slot in the cradlecap. Close valve- M, rcmmnove pumpand replaceplmmg L.
The capacityof the pumpis nbommt one-filth of a pint.The-n test for oil leakageinto air cylinder. Disregard of
this may lead to dangerouspressuresin theair cylinderand consequentdamageto the equipment.
Norn.—Aircannotescape-unlesstine-re is afault in valveK.Taking air pressuretoo often is to be deprecated,as somepressureis invariably lost on each occasion. The correctposition of the tail rod should be taken to mean that theree-uperatoris in serviceableworking order, andif the tailrod is not in the correct position it is probably due to liquidleakagefrom the roe-operatorcylinder.

6. THE EIJFFER.
(1) To fill the huller.
Level the guni lorrgitmrdinally and transversely. Removethe filling-hole plmrg fronmr the tank. See that the isolatingvalve is opon. Open the snifting valve to allow any air inthe buffer eylindor to escapeamid pour in oil nmntil aboutmali-way up time inspectionglass. l~eplacotime filling plug.About (i~pints of oil arerequiredto chargethe buffer amidtanrk.
Leakage [mom the buffer is automaticali- madeup frourtheoil reservoirwhen theisdiunting valve-is open.
Slmould the oil reservoiror the- pipe connectionoh the- oilreservoirbedamaged,tine- buffercan bechargedby removingthe isolating valve and using a funnel. Care- should betaken to see that time isolating valve is replacedbefore firing.
(ii) Cut.off gear.
The cut-off gear is correctly adjusted if, at ~iOdegreeselevation as indicated on tine- elevation arc, tho mob in thesmall lover on tine- front endof tinc piston rod is directly overthe hole in the front cradle- cap.
If tire rod of the cutofh gear be- damaged,tine- position ofthe pistonmaybe sot for a constantrecoil. To do this takeout tire pin from time- front end of tine- rod, turn the smallhover err the- piston io~luntil time hole agreeswith time imoloin tire front cradlecap and insert the pin in this hole. Inthis positionthe cut-off gear givesthe shortestrecoil.
(iii) Glands.
Glandsshould bo tightenedwhennecessary. it is betterto do this when the cradle is warm, as the pure-Icings then
74
~emrtbetter. Tine-y shouldnot be over-tiglntened,asthis maydistort tino floating rings amid also eammsoseizure-.
To tiglmten imp time- glands:—Opcathe- doorprovide-clin timeundersideof time front cradlecap arid tiglmten up time glandby meansof a tommy. If a glamrd hasbee-nover-tiglmtemmedandit is desiredto slackenit, time springparvlmustbepushedup umnd twisted to lock it be-fore- time giumncl can be turned.
If a leakageoccursat time glandsammcl tightening imp doesnot preventit, a supplementarypackingring simould beusedor if a supplementarypackingis alreadyin use,time defectivepaekimrg should ho re-ne-we-rh.
7. THE AIR PUMP.
Before starting woric, an externalexaminationshould beremadeto seethat timo imnip is cleain aridserviceable.
Wine-nassemblingcaremust be takento seethat all partsare cleanand well lubricated. Working parts will requirefurther lubricatiomr during pmmcnping.
To obtain time be-st resultsit is essentialto employ a fullstroke in working the- pump, i.e., from atop to stop.
When cimarginga systemit is be-st to comrtimiuo without astop until time desiredpressure-is re-ached,ehammgingtine me-nif fatigued. If n stop is mmnavoidable,note thepressureandclosevalve K. Before continuing, pumptime pi-csstnm-ein timepipe rip to time pressurenotedbefore openingvmmlve K.
If there-is anyfalling off in the- working pressure,examinetime valves. If gritty, time valves and springs should be-removedandcleaned. If necessary,valve-sshouldbe- ligirtlygroundin andcoatedwith tlmin oil.~ If tins doesnot improvetime efficiency of the pump, tine lnistonshould beremovedand
