Calibration
IMPORTANT: This tachometer is factory calibrated
to operate on 8 cylinder engines. For 4
or 6 cylinder engines, it is necessary to
make the proper adjustments to adapt this
tachometer to your cylinder range.
Locate the switch hole on the back of the tachometer.
Use an unwound paper clip to move each of the two
switches to the proper cylinder selection according to
the diagram illustration on the right. Apply included label
over switch hole.
NOTE: This tachometer has an air core meter. With
power off, it is normal for the pointer to leave
zero. When power is applied, the pointer will
move to the correct position.
