Description:
This is a very nice clean speed indicator/tachometer with 0-20,000 RPM capability, in 3 separate ranges that can be set with the white knurled slide switch on the right side of the tach. looking at the dial. The dial has 2 ranges of numbers, and that explains the chart ranges show in the picture of the instruction page that is included. It is marked on the 2.75" diameter glass covered dial face, "JAQUET", and also marked "HERMAN STICHT CO. INC. NEW YORK N.Y." on the top of the simulated leather covered wood case. Among the best made speed indicators for lower RPM's up to 20,000. The indicator comes with 7 different attachments, and two extra rubber replacement tips for two different tip, that each have a place inside the red velvet lined case. These attachments slip on the tachometer, and stay in place nicely. The instructions are in the case as well. The instructions claim that this unit never needs oiling or lubrication, a benefit over the older models. I have tested the indicator, it and all parts are in good working order, with some minor wear on the attachments noted, the wear is confined to the rubber parts, still fully uesable. The indicator itself is in fine condition, with a good glass lens, very nice heavy duty molded case, well cared for. An owner's name is marked on the back of the case. The box is very solid with some minor wear on the exterior, very clean and nice inside, good hinges and clasp, very solid construction. FPM or Feet Per Minute can also be measured by using the 6" circumference wheel that is included. A high quality indicator, that had a price of hundreds of dollars in it's day! A very precision made tool! I have seen none that can compare to it's quality, and smooth, quiet operation!
