The two tanksare placed low down in the engine-room to allow the oil inthe bearings to drain freely back by gravity. The tanksare tilted and the drain-cock placed so that it is two incheslower than any other part of the tank. An air-pipr is fittedat the highest point. The oil return pipe from the bearingsshould enter the tank as near to the bottom as possible, . recommended that the oil be allowed to return in its heatedcondition in order to facilitate its separation from the wati. -— 0*c**/rJ sno**tc <• Sisrrnn ran rttc fiLTR/triON a/vo Scp/iuhtion or Oil Cfr 90**0 itc*/*j*1 r,rrco *it» FokcCO Lou*ic*rl0n (Tv* *?)
