20/25 HP. CENTRALISED LUBRICATION.

The Final Test Department at Sales draw attention to the fact that they find quite an amount of oil dripping from the chassis, chiefly from the front pivot pins and shock absorber ball ends. We also understand that it is a subject of complaint from owners.

(Would you please have this matter investigated with a view to making some recommendations if necessary.)
