| R.R. 235 a (50 T) (S.G. 504. 8-1-20) G. {Mr Griffiths - Chief Accountant / Mr Gnapp} 7585. X-3735 Extract from Mr. Maddock's rept. on Chassis 2EX. 14.1.20. X.3647. X.3735. X.2496. The dynamo belt was found too slack again so a half link was taken out. apparently this made the belt uneven which caused the spring loaded adjustment to move about and make a clicking noise. It was some time before this could be quietened and even at its best it is not silent. | ||
