chrisbladen Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Just looking through the photos i took from when i was stripping down before restoration, just noticed this which from what i can remember doesnt do anything. Anybody got any ideas what it might be? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougbgt6 Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 The plastic nob has a thread part for a nut to bolt it through a hole in the right hand parcel shelf front cross member. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekS Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Off the top of my head, I'm sure there's a n instruction somewhere in the handbook (?) that it must only be rotated in one direction to avoid damage to the speedo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because all of mine regularly get rotated both ways while I try to remember which direction is the one that does anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekS Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 Hello, I've just checked the handbook and it says to turn the knob clockwise to zero the mileometer, I'm sure I've seen a label or whatever though that says only to turn it that way, my apologies if I've got it wrong!

Colin Lindsay Posted February 18, 2021 Report Share Posted February 18, 2021 One direction engages the teeth to turn the dials, the other doesn't. It doesn't do any harm unless you rotate it so hard that you wear the ratchet mechanism away... unlikely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
