SERVO JAGGERS. +8370

BJ4/E5.5.26.

The rubber washer which is fitted to introduce flexibility in the servo operation and to eliminate servo jaggers has been in use on experimental cars for 12 months.

We have just lately received a WW. design for a similar piece. This will be made and tested at the first opportunity.

In the meantime, as the complaint of servo jaggers is so distressing and likely to be dangerous, we recommend that our Depots are supplied with some of the devices similar to those which we have been using for 12 months.
