| X6006 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.10/ADL.2.32. DYNAMO ON CHASSIS 20-EX. This dynamo is giving trouble due to accumulation of brush dust etc. on the brush gear and commutator and we should like this dynamo removing from the chassis for examination and overhaul. We wish to replace it with a special dynamo fitted with brushes which have been impregnated with oil in order to give them a slight lubricating effect on the commutator.
