With reference to the question of providing an adjustment for the above controls to suit varying depths of scuttle, we send herewith(N.Sch.3079) a suggestion whereby an adjustment can be provided using all existing pieces. The existing shutter control tube is divided, and three new pieces are provided viz. outer sleeve, clamp and key pin.

Would By.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} kindly let us have a print of this if possible this afternoon.
