| (sheet 2) The shoes can be assembled in the carrier plates with the heel pull-off spring attached to the shoes. There is, therefore, no objection to the inaccessibility of this spring when the shoes are in place. The camshafts are mounted on needle roller bearings and as on Phantom III there is no oil feed to these bearings. The brake adjustment is rather higher up than on Phantom III, but is still, we consider, quite accessible. E/HDY.{William Hardy} | ||
