These things were made to run on wood gas or coal gas, not pure hydrogen. The original one at Deutz is plumbed into a system which mixes methane, carbon monoxide and hydrogen- a so-called "Manufactured Gas" which is a suitable substitute.

I'm having trouble even wrapping my head around what's even happening. Are there any pictures and explanations of the the action of the engine? Like I have no idea what is happening when that notched bar ratchets down and then is driven back up.

I didn't find a lot of information, but I guess it might be worked the same as Watt's atmos. engine. ie., what is injected into heated air to create a vacuum, somehow forcing the rod up. Not sure, look up Watt's engine.
