We are arranging to change over the dynamos as quickly as possible on the Bensport in France in order that we can run an experimental grade of brushes designed to reduce the excessive wear experienced. Will you please arrange for a standard three rate charge dynamo now dismantled in the electrical laboratory to be assembled with the armature shaft drilled and tapped to take the tachometer drive attachment and with experimental EGO brushes fitted a set of which we can supply. We should be glad if you will arrange for this work to be carried out in time for the dynamo to be despatched on Wednesday 8th., inst. hg/Wst. | ||
