Childs} By Mr. OWT. CHILDS- See me Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer} 26.G.V:- 25/30 HP. Dynamo Bearing. The new roller bearing at the commutator end of the dynamo has developed a noise like the previous one that gave trouble. Some provision for better lubrication or possibly a larger bearing will be required. --------- Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/IMW.{Ivan M. Waller - Head of Chateauroux} | ||
