BENTLEY STARTER MOTOR SPECIFICATION.

We agree with By/RD.1/W.16.12.33 and we should be glad if you will amend your copies of the above specification (test 2) by altering the load torque figures to 37.0 and 41.5 lbs inches respectively.

The minimum speed figure should also be altered to 1450 R.P.M.
