gear bushing on top. Lubricate gear teeth with small amount of No. 00 grease, O.D. Do not overlubricate.

d. Test magnet strength to determine proper hair spring: Place hair spring selector (408164) on frame and
magnet assembly. Place assembly on calibrating machine (fig. 94) and run master at 60 miles per hour
(chapter 13). The reading obtained from the hair spring selector can be converted to hair spring tension (in
degrees) by referring to “Hair Spring Chart” (par. 31 f) after determining pointer deflection (in degrees) at 60
miles per hour of speedometer being repaired (see following list). Select proper hair spring from kit (408082).
