Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} 2/T18.8.24. RE: CHASSIS 3-GII. We understand that this chassis is to-day being handed over to the Test Dept. There are one or two of our experimental items on this chassis. Of these:- (1) The AR. tungsten points should now be removed, returned to us and replaced by standard. (2) Redmanol encased coil TR {Capt. F. W. Turner - Finance} 4 should remain on the chassis in order to accumulate mileage. (3) Battery 3b. P & R six-compartment moulded cell case may as well remain on the chassis. It is understood that the Test Dept. will keep us advised of anything which may happen in connection therewith. (4) There is a dynamo field fuse of 30-SWG copper in the R.R. holder, which size of fuse might remain. (5) Dynamo R3 with annealed copper commutator. This may as well remain on the chassis for running. Therefore would you kindly arrange only to change the contact points. MADE AT CROXLEY EFC. {E. Fowler Clarke - Electrical Engineer} | ||
