The fact, if this be so, that the cutout does not show excessice overheating shoes that the trouble on the dynamo is not through the battery being disconnected. It would also be instructive to ascertain, if possible, from the owner, as to why in the first instance he should have required to do anything to the machine. Seeing that the machine was returned to us in this condition, which condition it certainly was not in when sent out, it is impossible for us to accept the responsibility of the overheating of the dynamo. We have not considered it necessary to run this machine and we have not of course done anything to it in the way of mxxkert re-soldering the armature connections. EFC. | ||
