OIL PRESSURE GAUGE FOR 40/50 CHASSIS. X.3524
The Pressure Gauges we used before the war use to read up to 4 lbs. and have a red mark at the 2 lbs. position.
Now that we make the Air Pumps so that they will pump up at 3 lbs., we consider that we should leave this red mark off. We see no use in the red mark and we recommend that we should simply have a plain dial reading up to 4 lbs.
