| -2- It has been further suggested that the screw fixing the dial could also cause a short circuit should the temperature rise abnormally high, and that it might be possible for you to guard against this by using a small insulated cap on the screw head in question so that it could be held thereto by making the cap a push fit. We should be interested to have your comments in due course. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. Buyer. ENCLOSURE Order R.5975. | ||
