rubber support blocks are supplied which should be bolted to the panel so
that the weight is taken on the tyre wall; the two thick blocks should be used
at the sides and the thin ones at front and rear.
With the spare wheel carried on the bonnet in this way, it is not possible to
fold the windscreen into the horizontal position.

APRIL 195097No maintenance attention is required at this point as lubrication is provided
by the oil in the transfer casing.
An engine governor must be fitted when either the centre or rear pulley
drive is in use.
The procedure for fitting the power take-off drive and selector units to the
gearbox is as follows:-
Remove the centre inspection panel from the seat box.
Remove the four nuts and spring washers securing the top cover-plate on
the transfer casing and lift off the cover complete with joint...

and governor positions are given in the chart on Page 101.
REAR POWER TAKE-OFF. The rear power take-off unit, mounted on the
rear chassis cross-member, is driven by a propeller shaft from the flanged
output shaft at the rear of the gearbox; the standard six-splined output shaft
(ten-splined on a few early vehicles) is on the centre-line of the vehicle and
provides power for towed equipment, such as a mower, binder,...

APRIL 1950100Lubrication nipples are provided at the sliding joint and both universal
joints on the propeller shaft; they should be lubricated at intervals of 500
hours, using the correct grade of oil.
The power take-off housing is provided with a drain plug and a combined
oi1 level/filler plug at the side. Check the oil level every 30 hours by
removing the level plug; if any oil runs out, allow it to do so, but if the level
is low add oil of the correct grade until it reaches the bottom of the level...

APRIL 1950102With the gears interchanged, the take-off output shaft R.P.M. at any given
engine speed are increased by 36/25 over the R.P.M. shown in the table.
For example:-
At governor position 1, i.e., engine speed 1,500 R.P.M., with top gear
engaged in the main gearbox, the chart shows that take-off speed is 1,250
R.P.M. with the standard 5:6 reduction. Under the same conditions, but with
the gears transposed, take- off speed would be increased to 1,800 R.P.M.
Conversely, an equivalent decrease in...

APRIL 1950103REAR PULLEY DRIVE.The 8in. (200 mm.) rear pulley unit (Fig. 52) is
so designed that it may be attached to the rear drive unit in place of the
guard by means of four spring washers and nuts, thus making for easy
installation and removal.
A combined oil level/filler plug is provided at the side of the housing.
Check the oil level every 30 hours by removing the plug; if any oil runs out,
allow it to do so, but if the level is low add oil of the correct grade, until it
reaches the bottom of the...

APRIL 1950105Two spare pins are supplied with the winch; the correct part must always be
used for replacement purposes, as the transmission would be liable to
damage if a stronger pin were fitted.
Lubrication attention to this unit is most important. The filler plug on the
left of the winch casing is combined with a dipstick, and a drain plug is
fitted in the bottom of the casing. The oil level should be inspected at
intervals and topped up as necessary to the level mark on the dipstick. At
intervals of...
