( Subj.: Oil pressure gauge f’or r..1otorcycles BHW R 50/5, R 6075, R 75/5 Dear Sirs, When the engines of the miot.orcycles show deficiencies which presumably result from insufficient lubricating or, after bavin~ reuaired the engine, we recommend to check the oil pressure .. For this purpose, a. commercia.l size pressure gauge with a measuring ra.nge of O – 114 or 142 psi is a.ppropiate. The pressure gauge can be connected on the blind plug M 10 x 1 below the contactor for tbe oil pressure indicator lamp with the engine removed a.nd, directly on the contactor (also M 10 x 1) with the engine installed. To check the oil pressure, rotate cold engine at room temperature – this should result in an oil pressure of 57 – 71 psi. Furtbi::r please a.heck if oil leaks out in the area of tl1e rocker aroo after having removed the rocker covers. With this ~etbod, the oil circulation can be tested 100%; deficiencies can easily be localized.
