Technical Data
† Usable reservoir capacity, as measured from centerline of top gauge glass to centerline of bottom gauge glass
(see page 10).
‡ All displacements are based on SAE 30 oil (500 S.U.S. at 100°F.) at room temperature. Volumetric equivalents of
drops are: 14,115 drops equal 1 pint, 490 drops equal 1 cu. in., 30 drops equal 1 cc.
Construction Materials
Reservoir and Cover - Heavily ribbed cast iron.
Cylinder - Hardened alloy steel, precision-honed.
Plunger - Hardened alloy steel, precision-ground and
fitted.
Valves - Poppet type, flat face, hardened and ground
alloy steel.
Valve Seats - Hardened and ground alloy steel.
Driveshaft - Integral crankshaft type, hardened, ground
and polished alloy steel, machined from solid bar.
Bearings - Bronze bushed, high load capacity, long-life,
self-lubricating type.
Regulating Lever - Forged steel.
