MAGNETO
STATIONANT, ARMATURE
NOTATING
Based on an entirely new principle of design and con- struction, the SCINTILLA Magneto offers the Motor Industry the finest ignition system engineering science has over produced. Its permanent magnet, the most robust part in any magneto, rotates. The delicate paris, such as the contact breaker with its contact points and the armature, are stationary.
The characteristic of the SOINTILLA Magneto lies therefore in the complete inversion of the systems hitherto known, and the numerous advantages of this magneto must be realized.
