Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Hazlemere Motor Co (Waltham Abbey) Ltd, Waltham Abbey, Essex.

Hazlemere produces three types of "D--mount low cost mechanical and electro-hydraulic systems and an unusual type "Er body which may be lowered to ground level by means of an independent electric power supply when it is free standing. The mechanical system uses a standard chassis sub-frame and the body is demounted by fitting four two-speed lifting legs and jacking the body manually clear of

the chassis. The hydraulic system has four single-acting rams enclosed in individual steel boxes; operation is by a single lever. Bodywork — boxvan or Luton — is Hazlemere's own Longlife type. The body features a onepiece resin bonded plywood floor, ribbed alloy panelling and steel tie rails. The subframe is similar for mechanical and hydraulic systems and therefore bodies are interchangeable between both chassis lift systems. The subframe has been designed to allow the vehicle chassis a certain amount of flexibility.
