x6092. Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} From Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.1/MA.8.5.33. x6142. Re. VIBRATOR CONTROL. Answering your Wor.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager}4/M5.5.33., the position of vibrator controlled dynamos for our chassis is as follows:- Bensport. The first 15 chassis are to be equipped with the 40/50 vibrator dynamo so that it can be assumed that Bensport will be launched on production with vibrator control. 40/50 Chassis. Our bench tests on the dynamo and regulator proposed for this chassis and Bensport are completed and as soon as sufficient mileage has been covered a standardization sheet will be issued. 20/25 Chassis and Peregrine. Our bench tests on the dynamo for 20/25 HP. chassis are not yet complete but we have equipped 18.G.4 with a similar system and at the completion of the 10,000 mile test we shall be in a position to issue a standardization sheet providing tests prove satisfactory.
