Lever apparatus: figure with letters
Continued diagrams of the weighted beam and its lettered mechanism
The two leaves continue the study of weights from the facing sheet: a faint graduated beam with a hanging load is drawn across the top of the left leaf, and small lettered diagrams of the framed lever mechanism appear at the head of the right leaf. The e-Leo record supplies only the descriptive tag Figura con lettere (figure with letters) for the right-hand apparatus. Considerable further text, written faintly, surrounds the drawings but is not transcribed in the bundle.

Lettered diagrams of the lever mechanism
Small framed diagrams of a lever-and-weight apparatus, annotated with letters, are set across the top of the right leaf, while a faint graduated beam carrying a suspended load runs along the top of the left leaf. They belong to the same investigation of counter-lever and lever as the preceding sheet.
