Cutout Screw Listed Incorrectly in Bratton's

[Tom Wesenberg]

On page 68 in Bratton's catalog 2 thick headed hex bolts are listed for the May 1930 and later cutouts. The screw to fasten the connector should remain a 10-32 x 3/8 fillister head screw, as was used on earlier cutouts. If you use a thick headed hex bolt, the head gets in the way of the nut on the generator output stud.

Tom, Dumb question. I have the imported cutout-kind of an anodized finish. It has a little tab with screw that sticks out of the side of the connector that goes on the generator output stud. What goes on that little tab ?

I think that tab was used for the headlight wire on later models. I'm not sure when the tab first came about.
