The optical antifreeze aNd battery
tester,
±S± 6630-00²105³14´8, lets
you test your rig's antiFeeze protection
and battery electrolyte. But, itµs got to
be accurate!
Hereµs how to c¶eck it:
Take a reading using distilled water,
±S± 6810·00·682²6867. If the reading
is more than 34 °P or less than 30°P,
the tester needs adjusting to 32°P. Take
3 or 4 readings to be sure.
Remove the instruction plate on the
bottom by working a kni¸ under the
edge. Dig
¹
out the clear silicone sealer
over the two outside screws.
±ever touch the middle screw. It
holds the lens in place.
Use a 5/16²in flat blade screwdriver
...
like the one in the ±o. ´ CommoN
shop set .
.. to adjust the screW ºrthest
Fom the eyepiece. Clockwise increases
the
readinG
and
counterclockwise
decreases it.
Make sure the final adjustment to
32 °P is clockwise.
