| 1044 To HPS.{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr} c. to HPS{Horace Percy Smith - Experimental Factory Mgr}/RH.{R. Hollingworth} Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}15/JH.14.6.39. Bentley 80 Pulley rig. Further to memo. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}1/JH.12.6.39. we should be glad if you would supply a dynamo for this job as the Lucas machine originally proposed is not convenient. We understand some old dynamos will shortly be available and one of these will be quite satisfactory. Messrs. Ferodo have also promised to run a second lot of belts on their test rig and would like us to supply the necessary pulleys together with a second dynamo. For this job any dynamo will do provided the pulley fits, and we suggest one of the pulleys instructed in Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards}15/JH.12.6.39. be used. This will be sufficient to keep them running for a bit as they will use P.III pulleys and fan for the other drives. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/Ed.{J. L. Edwards} | ||
