SEQUENCE STARTER MOTOR NO. 2B SCHEME (OUTWARD SLIDING ARMATURE) FOR 9-EX.
We are now handing back to you the motor on which you will remember you recently changed the number of turns per coil from 3 1/4 to 6 1/4. We are handing this to you for the instruction contained in EY/RD3/E11.7.28 to be carried out.
After this has been done, please send us back the motor for a short test, after which we shall again give it to you as it will be then ready for the fitting of the complete No. 2B scheme on 9-EX. as previously instructed, in EY/RD1/ML31.12.27.
We understand that you now have 9-EX in the shop for general alteration.
EFC.
