CENTRALISED CHASSIS LUBRICATION.

X3806

Herewith we send N. scheme 2599., shewing the simplified arrangement of piping on the pedals, front brake differential, and clutch operating shaft, now that it is intended to take the piping off the engine.

It is intended that the clutch thrust race should be made oil retaining for a long period, and also the fan, and the only point on the engine it is proposed to lubricate is the water pump bearing.
