Specifically, two technical drawings on page 12 give a sectional elevation and a floor plan for the gear, while the drawing on page 13 is a labeled one that, when the letters representing each side of the gear are matched with their corresponding letter on the table, give the physical dimensions of the gear. Page 14 contains a table of speed and horsepower for varying sizes of the gear; table measures ratio of speed variation, normal speed of constant speed shaft (in RPM), variable speed shaft (in maximum speed in RPM and minimum speed in RPM), horsepower output at maximum and minimum speed, and the model number of and number of links in each P.I.V. chain.
