| X4562 RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} from Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst.2/AM19.11.31. BOSCH REGULATED DYNAMO. We wish to fit to 27-EX a Bosch dynamo we have for test. In order to do this the drive couplings will have to be modified to suit the dynamo shaft, and the magneto drive shaft shortened. We attach herewith sketches of the new coupling required and we should be glad if you will arrange for these to be made as soon as possible. It is necessary to have these couplings firts in order to ascertain the correct length of mag. shaft. Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst. | ||
