Wraith II.
Clutch Casing.

We send herewith N.Sch.4853 which shows the above.

This casing is similar to that for the 25/30. The principal differences are the reduced diameter of flange for the gearbox, the absence of a front brake equalising shaft and attachment of the front brake dashpot to the clutch casing.

With regard to the clutch operation this is shown by Lec's 5147 and 5148 but the shape of the external operating lever should be as we show on this scheme.
