GREASE FOR BRAKE LINKAGES.

In future we want all brake parts when assembled greasy to be lubricated with Duckham's K.G.20 instead of K.G.24. The latter grease has proved unsatisfactory: any surplus we have should be scrapped and components packed with it should be repacked with K.G.20 when they are next dismantled.
