Customer's No. X8660 Complaint Dynamo T.P. 55 off Chassis 1-LC This is definitely a case of the dynamo having become overheated, and throwing the solder from the connections to the commutator. The machine has the 120° control brush setting of the late standard, and high output, as a result of this setting, appears to have been the cause of overheating. Signed C.A.P.
