External components include a spoked aluminum flywheel with a rotating handle, a spark plug with an attached lead, and a carburetor assembly. A metal instructional plate affixed to the wooden base features a detailed diagram and legend in German titled Demonstrationsmodell Zweitakt-Motor, listing eleven specific components including the cylinder, piston, and carburetor.
