HY{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer}/NW{N. Walker - Patents}5/MB1.6.28. X8782 RE INSTRUCTION BOOK LEAFLETS. We attach herewith copies of two leaflets, namely, one entitled "Carburetter Petrol Filter" and the other "Tappet Adjustment of Rolls-Royce Chassis Engines". The leaflet entitled "Carburetter Petrol Filter" should be issued to all 20 h.p. chassis owners commencing with Chassis No.GXL. 1. A copy should also be issued in future with each of our 20 h.p. chassis Instruction Books No7. The leaflet "Tappet Adjustment" is intended only for the use of the Repair Dept., for sending by them to owners whose cars have been in for an over-haul involving removal of the cylinder head. It is perhaps worth while for us to point out that in our latest books, namely, 20 h.p. Chassis No.7, and 40/50 h.p. Chassis No.4 (the latter will be available in a few days time) this instruction is already incorporated. There are 250 copies of this leaflet in the Stationery Stores for the Repair Dept's use. The Repair Dept. will nodoubt consider the advisibility of despatching copies to Cricklewood and other depots, and instruct D/BP accordingly. Att. 2 Leaflets. Encs. 12 for H.{Arthur M.
