adjusts .he current to 150 anps by increasing or decreasing engine
speed by means of the hand throttle. When the aMneter is stefdy at
i amps the position of the hand throttle may be marked on the quadrant
and used in that position on future occasions. It remains the respon-
sibility of the lorry driver to see that the current does not exceed
150 amps.
n breaking arc it will be found that the governors take control
and on striking arc the hand throttle takes control. If it is found*
that tne voltage is above or below 75 volts it may be adjusted by a
slight alteration of the positive carbon. This will also alter the
current, which must be brought back to 150 amps by the lorry driver.
