Mr Wormald for Mr Bailey.

G.4455 Drg. states slots to be .075" + 5" square corner bottom.

G.4466. Drg. states wire to be .064" - 5

The tape is too slack, these should be a tight fit and the slot the same section as the tape allowing the same to be soldered in, at present the solder will not hold.
The tape ought to be a tight fit so that in the event of the solder melting with the heat it will still have a hold.

Please advise.

Can you let me have the new windings for the Actuating Box yet ?
