The pointed plugs, C, are riveted into the upper end of one lever, while screw D passes through the upper end of the other lever.
A third lever, F, placed between the levers, B, is bored out at its hub to permit its sliding smoothly over the shaft, A. In addition its upper end is provided with a plug, C, similar to that placed in the other lever. The plug in the lever, F, however, is bored out at one end to receive the pressure from the screw, D.

��How to Make an Automobile Spring Leaf-Separator
THE body springs of an automobile should be periodically lubricated. This will result in greater comfort to the occupants as well as in quieter riding.
A common practice on the part of the avf^rage driver is to separate the leaves of the springs with the aid of a hammer and chisel or a screw-driver. Procedure such as this, however, is extremely detri- mental to the well-being of the springs, the constant hammering causing unneces- sary strain on the leaves.
