| TO HS.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} from E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} Copy to SJ. DA{Bernard Day - Chassis Design}: BY: EFC.X295 ORIGINAL RE SMITH DYNAMO. 3923b X.2608 E2/G1/9/20. D 2. SEP 1920 RECEIVED 5- We have re-erected the Smith dynamo on chassis 6 EX. The new machine had to be moved .200" endways to make the pulleys line up. You will remember you informed us that it would probably require some adjustment of this sort. Mr. Royce says he would like you to arrange one standard position for the Smith dynamos so that they will all be inter-changeable. It is possible that the adjustment was required on account of the new belt pulley on the dynamo. E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} | ||
