蒸汽機車 上的逆轉機通常是一個操縱桿或舵輪,用於調整蒸汽在活塞的運作循環中,自汽室 注入汽缸 的持續時間。當逆轉機被完全向前扳轉時,蒸汽在一個活塞循環中幾乎不斷地注入。而當逆轉機扳轉於靠近中央位置時,蒸汽則只在循環中的一小部分時間注入。

汽門 開啟時,車輛 鍋爐 中的蒸氣將以相對穩定的流量注入「汽室」,而其中蒸氣的消耗速度將隨車速、活塞循環加劇。當逆轉機完全向前、後扳轉時,到了一定車速,蒸氣量將不足以供應蒸汽機車加速時的消耗。但若能隨車速逐步將逆轉機調整接近中央位置,「汽室」將有更多機會加壓,從而達到更高時速。

Apart from setting the intervals in which steam is admitted to the cylinders, the cutoff control also determines the vehicle's direction, just like the reverser does on other powertrain types . Pulling the cutoff all the way backwards sends full steam in reverse. Cutoff must never be put in the opposite direction while in motion, as this sucks ash particulates and water into the cylinders, causing damage .

Cutoff setting also affects airflow . Being in the furthest position gets more air drawn into the firebox than when the cutoff is closer to the center position.
