| To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from EFC. c. BY/NHW. x 7791 EFC8/T12.12.27. WATFORD TYPE EW6 MAGNETOS. In this connection my assistant reports - "In the event of the adoption for standard of the above, it will be necessary to modify the lubrication instructions as contained in the 40/50 Instruction Book". "The distributor is fitted with a plain bearing and Messrs,North recommend that the magneto should be lubricated every 500 miles. Only a few drops would be sufficient particularly as the two main bearings are ball bearings." EFC. | ||
