The resistance plate is also so arranged as to be very readily adjustable to or from the longitudinally fluted and circumferentially grooved feeding and cutting roller, by means of an adjustment screw on the hand lever attached to it, on which a scale is provided to indicate the amount of clearance given. The detail views shown at the top of the drawing illustrate, the first, the feeding and cutting roller with the hopper door-plate removed, so as to allow the teeth in the lower edge of the resistance plate to be seen, as also the flutings, and the circumferential grooves in the roller; and, the second, the roller from the opposite side of the resistance plate, the latter being shown raised to a larger clearance than that usually employed during actual work, so as to more clearly demonstrate the spaces through which the tea passes between the teeth of the resistance plate and the flutes of the feeding and cutting roller. The feeding and cutting roller is interchangeable, and when the machine is used for giving the unassorted bulk only a slight breaking cut it-hould have the broadest and deepest longitudinal flutes, whilst when employed for reducing the size and thickness of coarse leaf or tailings, finer longitudinal flutes would be found to be more efficient.
