| SPECIAL FEATURES of the G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} A. {Mr Adams} High tension Waterproof Magnetos Design. Silent running. Ease of maintenance. Maximum efficiency. Ease of dismantling & repair. Rotation both ways. All types of G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} A. {Mr Adams} Magnetos are fitted with: (a) an indicator showing, at any moment, the next cylinder to fire. (b) an automatic timing device. N. B. — The attention of manufacturers is drawn to the fact that by a simple adjustment the armature of any of the G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} A. {Mr Adams} Magnetos may be made to revolve in either a clockwise or an anticlockwise direction. Description of the different Types of our waterproof magnetos for single cylinder engines G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} A. {Mr Adams} They may be driven either at crankshaft speed (thus missing one spark at exhaust and rendering starting of engine easier) or at 1/2 the speed of crankshaft. The type G S 1 driven at engine speed is suitable for 4 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. " G R 1 " " " " 6 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. " H S 1 " " " " 9 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. " H R 1 " " " " 12 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. Should the magnetos be driven at 1/2 speed of engine, type G R 1 should be used for 4 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. and H S 1 for 6 H. {Arthur M. Hanbury - Head Complaints} P. and H R 1 for 9 H P.
