New cylinders and valve gear were provided, fractionally smaller at 17 24. en.wikipedia.org

The lever is linked to the valve gear piston inside the high pressure steam port. en.wikipedia.org

This valve gear gave very good steam distribution even at short cut-offs; short as understood for a saturated-steam engine with a boiler pressure low by modern standards. en.wikipedia.org
