Instruction manual

DRIVING
FUEL
At the time of publishing this instruction book only one grade of motor fuel (Pool Spirit)
is on sale, but it may be that soon the various grades of pre-war petrol will again be avail-
able when the use of best quality fuel is recommended because the small amount of
economy that might be considered to accrue by using the cheaper grades is more than
offset by the advantages obtained by using only Number One grades.
FUEL SUPPLY
Two fuel feed taps are situated underneath the rear end of the petrol tank. (One each
side.) Both must be shut off when the machine is left standing for more than a few
minutes.
The tap plungers work horizontally. To open, the hexagon knob (marked " push on ")
is pushed towards the body of the tap. To close, press the round milled knob (marked
" push off ").
Normally, only use the tap on the right hand side of the machine and then the other
side will act as a reserve supply. Always re-fuel as soon as possible after being forced
to call upon the reserve, and then, at once, close the " reserve " tap.
It will be noted that, by fitting two petrol feed taps, it is possible to remove the petrol
tank from the machine without the necessity of first draining it of fuel.
