GENERAL UPKEEP—Bodywork
DOOR ADJUSTMENT
The doors are provided with special locks which, when correctly adjusted, prevent any
movement of the closed door. Only the striking plate requires repositioning when
adjustment becomes necessary. On earlier models the spring loaded dovetails and the
striking plate may require repositioning. This adjustment should preferably be carried out
by a coach fitter.
FRONT SEAT ADJUSTMENT
The front seats are adjustable for "leg length" by depressing the handle which is situated
under the front of the seat and adjusting to the required position.
SPARE WHEEL AND TOOL STOWAGE
The starting handle is clipped against the scuttle (see Fig. 5, page 11), the jack and tool roll
are strapped and clipped to the left-hand wheel housing. The remaining tools of the kit are
kept in the tool roll, which may be accommodated under the driver's seat.
The spare wheel is in a tray immediately underneath the luggage boot. To gain access
rotate the nut inside the boot with the wheel nut spanner to the full extent of its travel,
which is limited by a stop that prevents screwing out too far, and then pull rearwards the
clip securing the tray (see Fig. 21 and 22) thus releasing carrier and spare wheel.
Returning the tray is the reverse of this procedure. If the spare is not carried in the tray it is
advisable to ensure that the tray is wound right up solid to prevent any rattles.
