With reference to the difficulty of reaching the pedal on the L.H. chassis due as we understand to the central levers, we send herewith two schemes - N. schemes 3115/6 - shewing suggestions for getting over the difficulty. In the circumstances we think it best to send you both schemes, and get you to choose the one you find most convenient. N. sch. 3115. is perhaps the simpler, but requires a special top for the L.H. pump. N. sch.3116. uses exactly the same pump as for the R.H.
