It is proposed to delete the following parts from the tool kit:- 8" Half-round smooth file and handle. 1/2 lb. Hammer. Cold Chisel. Petrol Filler. AX. Large adjustable spanner. F.8070. Commutator Brushes. D.70910. } Brush and D.70624. } Connection. D.70911. } Brush and D.70623. } Connection. D.70912. } Brush and D.70624. } Connection. D.70913. } Brush and D.70623. } Connection. D.70939. Wallet for Brushes. We have already deleted from the Spares List the following parts:- E.70590. Cylinder Head Jointing washer. E.73247. Packing boards for same. KA.208. Bolt. K.4310. Nut for same. K.2008. Washer. These form a unit to prevent the jointing being damaged. In addition to the foregoing deletions, we are combining Spanners F.9813 and F.73555. The latter is a single spanner. The former was a double spanner, one end of which suited the sparking plug, but since we have a special sparking plug spanner E.53792, there is no need for having same combined with another hexagon. The foregoing proposal will therefore cut out F.73555. Contd. RECEIVED FEB 28 1927 | ||
