Radiator Straps - Cont'd. {John DeLooze - Company Secretary}

support bracket for the shell at the horizontal cross stay is shown on PD.446 and consists of a piece sheet steel bent to form an angle bracket, see section B - B.

The lower shell support bracket which is part of the bonnet valance strip attachment also is not correct as shown on PD.446, but it is shown completely on PCD.1425.

Since you may not have received a print of this scheme we are enclosing one herewith.

The holes in the base of the yoke to take the subsidiary mounting channel are shown on PD.445, of which we believe you have received a print.

Ripplet Radiator PD.466.

The flange for the water drain cock on the bottom tank will be sent to you without undue delay. The arrangement of the water outlet and cock is ECD.1492.

We hope we have been able to give you a complete reply to each of your queries. If you have not any of the drawings mentioned and you will inform us we will send you prints as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,
