of the generator. The functioning of these units often causes
slight fluctuations in the ammeter hand. This fluctuation is one
of the indications that the voltage and current regulator are
operating satisfactorily
and
should cause no concern on the part
of the car owner.
OIL PRESSURE GAUGE
This gauge
on
the instrument panel is an indicator only, and
merely shows whether the pump is working. The pressure shown
on the gauge does not necessarily indicate the condition
or
quantity of oil in the
crankcase.
When starting a cold
engine,
it will be noted that the oil pres-
sure gauge
on
the instrument panel will register a high oil
pressure. As the engine warms up, the pressure will drop until
it reaches a point where changes to higher speeds will raise the
pressure very little, if
at all.
If
the gauge does not register pressure when the
engine
is run-
ning, stop the engine immediately
and determine the cause.
SPEEDOMETER
The speedometer is
of
the circular
type and is located to the right
of
the
instrument cluster.
In
a small
opening at
the
50-mile
mark, a red light shows whenever

the head lamps are lighted on the upper beam designed for driv-
ing
outside of cities
and towns.
CLOCK
Fleetmaster
and
Fleetline Models
are
equipped with
an illuminated 'stem
wind clock located to the left of the
glove compartment door. The clock is
set by pulling
out
and turning the stem
wind knob at the bottom of the dial.
When the headlights or parking
lights are on,
a
light within its
case

illuminates the dial.
