Standard Tiny-Tach™ — Installation Instructions
The Tiny-Tach™ meter can be mounted in the desired location using
either sheet metal screws or by using double sided tape. For best
results when using tape, be sure to clean off any dirt, grease
and oil from the desired mounting location using a suitable solvent
such as denatured alcohol.
Find a suitable route to run the pick-up wire to the spark plug
wire. It is not critical how the wire is routed. It can be put
into existing wire harnesses or wrapped around and taped
to metal supports. Caution: Keep
wire clear of extremely hot engine parts such as the muffler, etc. Wire
damage (cuts or burns) will cause the wire to short and your Tiny-Tach™
will stop working. Wire damage is not under warranty.
The red wire should be wrapped around a section of the spark
plug wire using 3-4 turns. Please be certain you do not wrap the red
wire too close to the spark plug that engine vibration will allow it
to come into direct contact with the metal portion of the spark plug.
Most engines have a spark plug cap and will prevent this from happening.
After the connections are made, any excess wire can be coiled up and
taped to a convenient area.
 
Operating Instructions for Gasoline Tiny-Tachs™
When the engine is started, the display will indicate the RPM
of the engine. When the engine is shut down, the display will switch to run time, initially in minutes
and then switching to hours once the total reaches 60 minutes.
Models with a Reset Function
The RESET indicator on the label
surface is a pressure point that can be pushed at any time
to reset the total hours. When pushed, the meter will go through
a self test and display all the segments to ensure everything is
OK. If you need to record your hours, do so before resetting your
Tiny-Tach.™ |
