| - 16 - Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rml/T22.6.26. (i) Air has got into the system. In this case passage C should be inspected to see that this is not blocked up. (ii) The supply valves L are not working correctly. These should be inspected to see that the balls have free movement. In the event of the shock damper load changing appreciably, the valves L should again be inspected, and also filter O to see that this is not blocked up. Too low an oil level in the damper may also be responsible for these troubles. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/W.A. Robotham. | ||
