A short dictionary entry defining a beater-press, a baling press in which the bale is packed by beating and then solidified by sustained pressure. It describes the example in Fig. 620, where a beater lifted by toggle-links and pressure-arms becomes the follower of the press, worked by a rope and toggle levers. It also mentions arrangements with a capstan and draft animal for hay baling. The entry concerns agricultural baling machinery, not weaving.
