The three-bladed fly is an air brake that ensures the even movement of the chiming and striking mechanisms without noticeable "fits and starts". A fly or fan usually has between 2 and 4 vanes, ours has three. Its blades can be turned altering its retarding parameters and thus changing the frequency of the hammers striking the bells. |
