LID{A. J. Lidsey} x71320 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}1/HP.12.9.33. See me HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} c. Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} re Hand Controllable Shock Absorbers - P.2. We send you herewith: LeC.3628 shewing the control rod for operating the extra cylinder oil cock moved from the position shewn on LeC.3600, in order that the existing crankcase breather can be used. In regard to the mixture controls on the carburetter which are shewn in the right-hand corner of the drawing, these are modifications which apply to either schemes whether we have the breather on the crankcase or on the rocker cover.
