At the bottom of the upright shaft there are two crown wheels The upper crown wheel, which has 33 cogs drives an Archimedes' screw via a crown wheel. The lower crown wheel, which has 32 cogs is carried on the axle of an Archimedes' screw, which was used to drain the polder. The axle of the screw is 22 centimetres (9 in) diameter and 3.40 metres (11 ft 2 in) long. The screw is 1.04 metres (3 ft 5 in) diameter. It is inclined at 24.5°.
