BATTERY BOX SUSPENSION
Improved design of cantilever support is now instructed by W.W. and being tested. This will therefore be dealt with in test reports.

GEAR BOX OIL LEAKS
Solution of this arrived at by fitting a pipe to connect continuous gear cell to main cell, and for the purpose of transferring surplus oil. Dealt with in earlier report.

OIL PUMPS
Report recently issued.

THRUST RACES
Report recently issued.

This report therefore clears up all jobs up to me for investigation.
