CENTRALISED CHASSIS LUBRICATION. DASHBOARD PUMP.

With reference to the question of preventing oil spilling down the rear side of the dashboard, we send herewith N. scheme 2954. showing a proposal to overcome this trouble.

We have also taken the opportunity of increasing the number of bolts holding the tank together from two to four, in accordance with a request from the Exp. Dept. who said they had difficulty in making a joint.
