To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from AJS.

AJS4/M9.7.25.

EAC.7. GEARBOX X. 8310

We send you herewith change lever and gate mechanism for the above chassis - LEC.2109.

The scheme generally is similar to India but the reverse pawl and catch have been made neater by the elimination of the cylindrical extension on side of pawl, as used in the India chassis, and the replacement of it by a pawl coming in contact with a projection cast under the gate between the 1st. and reverse slots.

AJS.
