To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}

Hsl/LG3.4.29.

CENTRAL LUBRICATION. X4400

On cars fitted with the 3-point central lubrication we still wish to supply an Enots Oil Gun. We should like this, however, to be the type without the intensifier because if the super high pressure is used there is the possibility of the drip plugs being damaged.

We are in touch with Messrs. Benton & Stone to supply us with a special gun which will not exceed a pressure of 100 lbs., as it is doubtful whether this gun will be ready for the 20 HP. the standard Enots gun without the intensifier should be instructed.
