Not sure on the stand but those explanations do make sense.
As for the side cut outs in the generator bin. As I understand it they were to hold tins for the special .303 grenade launch rounds. I found this link that has some pictures of what those tins might look like. Thoughts? http://www.milsurps.com/content.php?...nd-Dischargers

Ben, That was my error. I shouldn't have said grenades.
Here is the link to the original thread that covers a lot of the Mk1 stowage items. http://www.mapleleafup.net/forums/showthread.php?t=4474 Page 4 has info on the 4" smoke generators.

Hi, Thats a very nice original looking carrier, It would be nice to see behind the rear tool plate to see what support the towe hitch. Also I wonder if they have an original wood seat arrangement over the right gas tank for it?. Proof also about the rear batt box black pitch/rubber paint. Nice grenade box interior. It would be nice to get a history on it, might have been stored up as an original un-issued carrier?. Only reserve is the fire extinguisher holders?. Anyone notice the rear can holder wooden insert in the bottom?.
A couple of pics of an original smoke dis box. kevin.

I just went out and checked on my carrier and a 2 gallon POL can will fit perfectly in a rack as this carrier is setup.
