RADIATOR SHUTTERS X.3499 We send you herewith LeC.1086 and LeC.1087 giving further details regarding the radiator shutters and control. LeC.1087 shews the distribution of the securing bolts for the shutter frame, and details of the clamping plates. LeC.1086 shews the first step in the control gear, a double lever carried on a bracket from the radiator suspension cap. This fitting is suitable for any existing radiator with the undersphere suspension of the standardised form. Would you kindly proceed with the detail work on this job as far as the attached LeC. drawing shews. Further schemes will be sent shewing the control completed up to the instrument board.
