              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note A - The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and
Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.

Note B - Effective August 1, 1993, the Company changed its method of accounting
for income taxes to comply with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" (FAS 109). The new Statement requires a
liability approach for computing income taxes. The cumulative effect of adopting
FAS 109 was to increase prior year first quarter net earnings by $2.2 million (8
cents per share).

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of Operations.

A. Financial Condition

Positive cash flow in the second quarter totaled $8.1 million; for the
year-to-date, positive cash flow totaled $14.4 million. Strong operating
earnings continue to more than cover new plant and equipment expenditures and
increased working capital requirements related to higher sales levels. Capital
expenditures for the year are higher than last year due to the expansion of the
Stevens Point facility and the addition of a new product line at the Cresco
facility. Dividend payments totaled $1.8 million in the second quarter and $3.7
million for the year-to-date. $.2 million of treasury stock was repurchased in
the second quarter.

At the end of the second quarter, the Company held $37.3 million in cash and
cash equivalents. Cash balances net of short-term debt and current maturities of
long-term debt totaled $10.6 million at the end of the second quarter, up from
$8.0 million at the end of the prior quarter. Long-term debt, totalling $15.9
million at quarter-end, represented 7.4 percent of total long-term capital,
essentially unchanged from 7.6 percent at the end of the prior quarter.

B. Results of Operations

Second quarter net sales of $168.9 million were up nearly 25 percent from
prior-year sales of $135.6 million. Second quarter net earnings of $7.7 million,
or 29 cents per share, were up 23 percent from last year's earnings of $6.2
million, or 23 cents per share. Worldwide net sales of engine products totaled
$112.5 million in the second quarter of 1995, up 26 percent from the same period
last year. Worldwide net sales of industrial products totaled $56.4 million in
the most recent quarter, up 22 percent from last year. Sales increases have been
recorded for all product lines in all markets, with the exception of the Gas
Turbine Systems business which has been flat relative to last year.

         Gross margins of 28.1 percent in the second quarter were essentially
unchanged from the prior year. For the year-to-date, gross margins of 27.8
percent were slightly lower than the prior year, primarily due to charges taken
in the first quarter to provide for the residual net book value of certain
production lines at two of the Company's plants. Going forward, margins are
expected to remain close to the second quarter level as increased raw material
prices are recovered through operating efficiencies and modest price increases.

Operating expenses as a percentage of sales were 19.5 percent in the second
quarter and 18.9 percent for the year-to-date period. These expense levels, as a
percentage of sales, were below the unusually high prior-year levels when
warranty reserves were increased related to the diesel particulate trap product,
the production of which has been discontinued.

Net other expenses totaled $1.4 million in the second quarter of 1995 compared
to net other income of $.8 million in the second quarter of 1994. The $2.2
million change is due to lower joint venture income relative to the year ago
period and increases in other miscellaneous expenses.

Total backlogs of $196.0 million were up 35 percent relative to the same period
last year and 9 percent from the prior quarter end. Hard order backlogs -- goods
scheduled for delivery in 90 days -- of $123.5 million were up 29 percent from
the same period last year and up 5 percent from the first quarter.
