We are despatching to you today 5 diaphragm assemblies . three for 35-EX and two for 3-B-IV. We wish these to be fitted at the earliest possible opportunity. For details of setting which we believe you are aware of they should be screwed in until the toggles just break when they are pressed slowly and firmly home and then unscrewed 4 holes back on the diaphragm edge. When bolting up hold the diaphragm back (contacts open). Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/J.B.Dixon. | ||
