Wiper on drivers side of 1999 Blazer only clears windshield at top and bottom is there a way to adjust tension?
Only by replacing the wiper arm can you change the tension. Rarely is this necessary unless the spring is broken. You can easily tell if the spring is boken. No tension on the blades and the spring is broken. Try replacing the entire blade assembly with a new set of quality blades. Trico are inexpensive and very good.

Can you tell how emergency stop valve of turbine operates?
Unless it is an electronic governor on the turbine, there is a mechanical overspeed trip device which closes the trip valve (or trip throttle valve [TTV] on small turbines). This device is a spring loaded weighted pin set into the turbine shaft. At a particular set speed (110% of maximum operating speed, typically) the pin overcomes the force of the spring, flying part way out of the shaft and striking the trip mechanism linkage. This linkage up to that point was holding the trip valve open, now with the release of the linkage the spring on the trip valve instantly closes the valve stopping all flow of steam to the turbine. On electronic governors, when the set point on the turbine speed is reached it opens a solenoid valve (which requires a manual reset) which dumps all hydraulic pressure from the trip valve, allowing it to close.
