| X3770 19.8.20 Extract frm Oy8/G18.9.20. Re New Chassis Troubles. -------------------- Below are some examples of troubles experienced with the electrical equipment we have recently had with imported chassis: X.3034. (7) On chassis 74-TW, the main switch gave trouble due to improper connection. X.3770. (8) On 25-DW, the Lucas cutout stuck. (This was wrongly reported under the heading "S. Starter" in my report 18-A on August, 17th 1920.) X.3014. (9) On chassis 21-LW, the generator was noisy, apparently due to lack of oil. | ||
