Bentley Balance Weights.

We send you herewith:

LeC.3609 shewing the modifications necessary to the first 15 engines having the single fixing stud.

The drawing calls for the stud to be shouldered. and made in a better material.
The faces of the balance weights are cut away in the centre to ensure a good fixing.
