SUBJECT:
DELAYED REVERSE TO DRIVE IN COLD OPERATING CONDITIONS
MODELS AFFECTED: 1989 THM 125C/3T40
BULLETIN COVERS (Figure 1)
New cross drilled holes (larger in diameter) drilled through the Manual Valve and a second Cold Window that has been added to the Thermal Element.
These changes increase the rate of fluid exhausted through the Manual Valve during cold operating conditions, which reduces the potential for delayed
