The flagman faces exactly toward the communicating station; staff is vertical in front of centre of body, butt at height of waist. The _dot_ (·) is represented by a motion to the right, and the _dash_ (-) by a motion to the left of the sender. The _space_, whether separating elements of _spaced characters_ (C, O, R, Y, Z, and "&"), or separating words, will be represented by a "front" motion. Thus the motions: Right, right, front, right, represent C. Right, front, right, represent O. Right, front, right, right, represent R. Each motion will embrace an arc of 90°, starting from and returning to the vertical. The _long dash_ (letter "L" and numeral "naught") is distinguished from the "T" dash by a slight pause at the lowest point of dip, and with this exception there will be no pause whatever between the motions required for any single letter. A slight pause will be made between letters. At the end of each word, abbreviation, or conventional signal the space signal, or "front" motion, is made, _preceded and followed by a pause_ equivalent to that made between letters.

When adjustment is satisfactory, the receiver will acknowledge, and the sender will resume his message.
