STEERING.
The cam gear steering box has a ratio of
l6:l
and has provision for taking up wear.
The height of the wheel is adjustable so that the driver may obtain the most
comfortable position. Immediately below the wheel boss there is a knurled nut.
To raise or lower the steering wheel
it
is necessary to release this nut
-
slide the
wheel into the required position and lock knurled nut.
The oil filler cap should occasionally be removed and the oil level inspected.
It is important that the oil level should be maintained at approximately +in. from
the top of the filler tube.
Fan Belt Adjustment.
The fan belt must be sufficiently tight to prevent slip at the Dynamo and Water
Pump, yet there should be sufficient slack to move the centre of the belt sideways
about lin.

To make any necessary adjustments, slacken the bolts and raise or lower the
Dynamo until the desired tension of the belt is obtained, then securely lock the
Dynamo in position again.
BODYWORK.
Dust on the car may be lightly flicked off with a duster, but on all other occasions
the car must thoroughly washed and dried before a cellulose polish is used.
Any
attempt to rub dirt off the car will result in a severe scratching of the smooth surface
of the cellulose.
Grease and tar splashes must be very carefully removed with a soft rag dipped
in petrol.
Washing and Polishing.
When washing the car, commence from the top and worlc downwards, using
a slow flood of water and then leather off all the surplus moisture.
After washing
and drying, use a good quality cellulose polish which will not only impart a brilliant
lustre to the surface of the cellulose but will help to preserve it from atmospheric
corrosion. An occasional application of a good class wax polish will also help con-
siderably in maintaining a smooth finish.
