F.10.

This is to confirm that you will slack the nut on the top of the vertical drive of the Camshaft drive slightly on the hangar engine.

In the case of F.10 which is now being erected, we should like the camshaft drive originally to be tight, and if we do not experience a failure, it can be slacked off.
