Re: Centralised Chassis Lubrication - Dashboard Pump. Herewith N.Sch.3064, Dashboard Pump made 50% greater in capacity both as regards the pump and also the tank. We believe the pedal in the position shewn is not in the way, and the increase in load is not unreasonable. Since we cannot increase the tank much, in diameter, we have had to increase its length, but there appears to be room to do so. DA.{Bernard Day - Chassis Design} | ||
