X872 Expl: Office, Messrs. Rolls-Royce Ltd., Nightingale Rd., Derby, England. M.{Mr Moon / Mr Moore} Olley Esq., Rolls-Royce of (America) Inc., Springfield, Mass., America. OY. from Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} We attach a scheme showing an oil pipe for lubricating the clutch spigot. I recommend you adopt this. Although you may have had no trouble so far in doing away with the spigot lubrication, we think a means should be provided so that if at any time the clutch showed signs of of seizing, it is possible to get some oil on to it. Yours sincerely, | ||
