Description	§.	Ch.	Fig.
Description of a pressure pump Druck-Werck: a force pump that pushes water upward with double wooden square pipes, where the pistons move perpendicularly, according to Schildknecht's Wendelin Schildknecht (1638–1705) was a noted military engineer and architect instructions.	238.	XLIX.	1.
Another type of compression pump by the same author.	242.
How to drive one crank by means of another crank.	246.
If a well stands before a door, or otherwise in the way, how to arrange it so its housing and machinery can be moved to the side.	248.	L.
A pump-work with a single valve.	249.		3.
A double suction or pressure pump, where the pistons are moved perpendicularly by two ropes and a pulley.	250.		4.
A machine through which water is brought to the terrace Althan: a raised balcony or roof terrace in the Dinglinger House The residence of Georg Christoph Dinglinger, a famous court jeweler in Dresden in Dresden by a single person, invented by Mr. Gärtner.	252.	LI.	2.
A special piston used in this and the following machine.	255.
The second Gärtner machine, which uses the regular piped water in the courtyard to likewise drive water 58 feet high onto the terrace of the same house.	256.	LII.	1.
A special machine for determining how much power humans or horses exert or require on another machine, especially with horse-mills Göpel-Werck: a horse-powered gin or capstan used for hoisting where horses are hitched to a lever, in order to calculate the machine's efficiency.	257.	LIII.	2.
Another similar machine or test.	258.		3.
A discourse on the nature of machines, or what is necessary to know about machines in general: whether they can be improved or not, why so many new ones are invented, and what a mechanic Mechanicus: an engineer or master builder must observe when planning a work—both when water is to be raised from a depth and when it is to be driven upward—concerning various types of machines and which are likely the best.	259.
That the improvement of waterworks Wasser-Künste: literally "water-arts," referring to complex hydraulic engines is currently sought after by many, especially by people who lack sufficient fundamental knowledge.	261.
That simple machines are the best.	262.
Friction and the incorrect application of power are the primary reasons why machines do not perform as they should.	264.
What must be observed regarding machines if they are to perform as the calculations indicate.	266.-269.
Why so many types of machines are necessary.	273.
What a mechanic must do when proposing waterworks.	274.
Which engines for lifting water upward are the best?	281.
What is to be observed regarding the power intended to move an engine.	284. and following
Water,	285. 286.
Fire,	287. 288.
Weights,	289.
Animals and Humans.	290 295.
Regarding intermediate gearing Zwischen-Geschirr: transmission or connecting machinery between power source and pump, and which are the best.	296. 300.
How water in mines is managed by buckets and pumps, what and how much can be achieved with them, and how high they lift.	300.
On the most common engines in Saxony. Regarding field-rods Feld-Gestänge: a system of long wooden rods used to transmit power from a waterwheel to a distant mine shaft, wheels, their height, and how they are hung. Regarding pipes, high and low stages, and how deep one can go with a single wheel.	301.
Various types of engines and their calculation for a well 40 feet deep, such as with:	302.	LIII.	1. 2.
Pump-works using levers and handles,	305.		3.
with the treadmill using trestles Original: "Ziegenböcke," literally "billy goats," a term for supporting frames,	307.		4.
with the treadwheel powered by humans,	308. 309.	LIV.	1.
with a declining inclined wheel,	310. 311.
with an overshot wheel,	312 -- 316.
how to achieve with a pipe what such a high wheel does.	317.
The difference between the pipe and the wheel.	319.
What is necessary to know for the calculation of a waterwork driven by water.	320.
Regarding various intermediate gearings.	326.
Three tables regarding the weight of water.
