We send you hereweith drawing No. LeC.1192 shewing the above.

We have already described the principle upon which this gear is arranged. Slight alterations will be required to the rear cap on the dynamo, the front bush and driving shaft of the motor, and to the rear left hand crankcase, foot, all particulars of which are given on the drawing.
