FOSTER STEAM TRACTION ENGINE... MECHANICAL LUBRICATOR

Up for auction is this rarely found, original, mechanical lubricator by
William Foster & Co Ltd. OF LINCOLN. This is the type regularly
found on traction engines and steam rollers. I was told this one used
to be fitted to a Burrell agricultural engine. It has sat gathering
dust on my shelf for a while.

All appears to be in good order, I have tested it myself, and it is in
full mechanical working order, and pumps very well. ready to fit on any
traction engine today.

The lubricator is 7" tall, 5" wide and 3 1/4" deep (approx) and comes
compleate with strainer and full working ratchit gear and linkage arm,
and winding handle.
