Wor{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}14/R.1.1.35. BENTLEY CHASSIS. Page 1 of Minutes - Sg{Arthur F. Sidgreaves - MD}21/E21.12.34. PIVOT PINS. In connection with this matter the Minute states:- "It is considered that this is a 'Safety First' job and must be worked on day and night". This does not mean week-end work. It is absolutely imperative, however, that before any of the new pins are fitted on a chassis, tests are made experimentally with the new pins as quickly as possible in order that a standardisation sheet can be issued. Will all concerned please deal with this matter without delay. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} | ||
