New Tops or Joints.—When required, it is absolutely necessary that at least the joint into which the new part is to be fitted should accompany the order, as in its absence a new part cannot, under any circumstances, be supplied. If possible, it is more satisfactory to send the whole rod.
In Ordering Rods.—In addition to giving the Number and description, Customers are particularly requested to state the Length desired where various lengths are stocked.
Note.—Rods should never be allowed to remain in damp cases, nor the tops in damp Landing Handles. Carefully dry the rod with a soft cloth after use. A little dry soap rubbed on the ferrules before putting the rod together will ensure the joints coming apart easily. Vaseline and other lubricants should not be used.
