English: Zander Type G-3 Motorized Manually Adjustable Dual-arm (spanker) Lower Body Massage Unit" is basically a heavy-cast iron base that holds a complicated amalgam of levers, wheels, weights, and bars. The most striking part of it is end with a very large curved lever and painted wooden knob and, behind it, two long bars that each end in a leather-covered bend curving the opposite way from the handle. A frame connects these components with an adjustable weight at the other end, and the whoe is balance on a cylinder between two wheels to be connected, presumably, by leather belts to a motor. This machine provides leg percussion. With the handle the user can raise or lower the two cane-like "hammers" to strike different parts of the leg. However, they were never to be used on varicose veins.
