| X4510. RHC. {R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} From Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /GR. {George Ratcliffe} Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} /GR. {George Ratcliffe} 1/MU.17.11.30. SALERNI COUPLING ON 14-EX. Will you please insert packing pieces between the speed up springs (G78671) and the retainer (G78694), and also between the pressure retaining springs and the container so that all the springs are choc-c-bloc; also reduce the torque on the spring G78685 so that the clutch pedal can return fully even though the coupling be disengaged.
