-2- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/NRC.{N. R. Chandler}17/JH.27.8.37. This ring may be from .060 to .070 thick, the exact thickness is not vital, so long as the thickness is uniform. When using the standard R.R. setting plate, which is .325 thick, the finger should be set at 1.000, which will give approximately .815 when the new plate is fitted.
