| (2) (8) flange of outlet gland of pump is made in aluminium and appears to be weak. (9) crankcase breather. PEDALS. Lubrication. We are about 20 years out of date. The fitting of the small Rotherham lubricator to the accelerator pedal is ridiculous. ENGINE DRAIN PLUG. We have had to discard the side guard as it was not possible to get to the plug. This plug also does not drain the sump. WATER. There is no accessible provision to drain the water from the system. REAR BRAKES. An owner has to crawl under the rear tank to adjust his brakes. LUBRICATION. The bijur for the front end of the rear road springs should be increased, and also to the rear. The supply to the equalizing shafts could be cut down.
