RE NEW PHANTOM(Codename for PHANTOM I) INSTRUCTION BOOK.

Inspection of Commutator & Brushes.

On p. 37 we say " At the same time, the commutator and brushes should be inspected."

We might have added here a suitable sentence to the effect that by releasing the dynamo clamping stops, it is possible to turn the dynamo carcase into such a position that the brushes, which cannot normally be suitably inspected, are brought into a convenient position for such inspection.
