F.CD.79 Modifications to Steering Box. Wraith III.

The object of the modifications shown on this scheme is to improve the clearance between the end of the rocking shaft and the crankcase, increased clearance being necessary when assembling or removing engine etc. Alteration is made to the length of the rocking shaft and boss of pendulum lever. The gland and complicated drilling along the rocking shaft is replaced by coiled pipe, and rocking shaft is drilled for lightness.
