Label Inside Splitdorf Coil Box Lid

Post by CudaMan » Thu Dec 28, 2023 3:55 pm

Larry Smith's recent post offering a reproduction of the original label inside the lid of KW coil boxes reminded me of the label that is inside the lid of the coil box on my 1912 Flanders, I thought it was humorous: :)

The 1912 Cadillac owner's manual had similar advice regarding proper care of the storage battery. (1st year of electric start)

The manual for my 1912 Overland warned, "Don't monkey with the magneto!"

I wonder if the same person wrote all 3 manuals. (?) The style is similar.
