COPY. S/W - Hd.{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy} WHr{Mr Wheeler}16/D9.5.32. Hd{Mr Hayward/Mr Huddy}/SB{Mr Bull/Mr Bannister}12/KW6.5.32. In accordance with standing arrangements, we submitted your memo. to PN.{Mr Northey}, and he suggests that Depot Sheet No. 234 might be more suitable for general use if worded as follows :- "The successful operation of the dynamo on our chassis depends on the battery circuit remaining intact, for if any bad connection is allowed to exist the machine will become overheated with damage to the commutator. In such cases, no new dynamo should be fitted until it is certain that all connections are clean and well tightened up." Will you please let us have your remarks. WHr.{Mr Wheeler} | ||
