I'm having a little trouble reading the gauge... Do I read the highest number that is between the | | (bars) ?

the number above the line that is at the edge of the chrome housing, hope this helps.

You read the tire depth gauge as follows. Press down on a hard flat surface to make sure the depth gauge zeros out. Then place on the tire press the top down until the probe touches the bottom of the space between the tread blocks. The bottom of the number that corresponds to the line that is even with the bossy of the depth gauge is your tread depth. For example 4_ would be 4/32 of an inch. The underscore would be at the top of the barrel or outer body of the depth gauge and the number just even wih that line being your depth.

The correct reading would be the number above the line that is closest to the upper rim of the case. Example: Set the gauge on a flat surface and bottom the end of the center pin so that it is even with the bottom of the case. You will see that the number above the line closest to the upper rim of the case is zero.

You try turning the gauge after measuring (without touching the barrel). There are measurements & lines in between the lines that you are seeing

If you gently spin the inner gaue part around it should line up a number even with the outer body (best I can describe it)...if it doesn't (like the closest is 4.5) then use the lower number to be safe...also, remember to take multiple readings from different areas on the same tire...JM2CYMMV.

It probably won't measure correctly. The idea here is that the gauge reads empty when it is hooked to the exact weight of a standard 20 lb. tank. Let's say that's 5 lbs. If your 30 lb. tank weighs 7 lbs. when empty, the needle on this would still read above empty. You could only really use this if you weighted your tank when it is empty and custom marked that as the new zero or empty value. Also, I don't know how well this would tolerate weighing your tank at full weight.

I used 16 gauge and its working great. I think you can use 14 as well but 16 works fine so save a few 4.

The gauge has marking for all three. R134,R12,R22 different color number for each. Hope that answers your question. Have a Great Day

I use .105 line and it's a little tight so although I've never tried the heavier lines, I suspect .115 is the correct number.

Hi Shane,as you know these meters are very sensible. Off 2 Amps looks like mech. damage. When you move the meter the needle should move free in either direction. There is a black plastic screw below the gage. Here you may adjust the needle, but not sure whether such a large misalingement of 2 Amps. Does the Ampmeter works anyway????Good luck my friend

The gauge is not accurate while the compressor is running. It is not totally accurate, even when it is not running. That is, not as accurate as a good quality dial gauge. I say this because I have several gauges, and all the round (dial) gauges read the same value,and the other ones (bar gauge, digital gauge, and the compressor's gauge) are off by a psi or two.Your best bet is to double check the compressor's gauge with a good quality dial gauge. It will be off by some constant, and once you know what that is, you can correct the compressor's reading by that.

The closer you get the more bars on your signal meter you should see. If I am within an inch I get three extra bars.

mine was fine when received from the seller. The gauge will probably still work ok. Just make certain you handle & store carefully.Nick

Hi Zitch I just look up the operating instructions on line and it does not indicate that you can calibrate this gauge. I have checked mine against a few manual gauges and it was very accurate. Hope this helps. Dave.

I don't really know but the gauge has reads up to 160psi. Don't know if that means it can.

After 20psi there are five intervals for each increment of 20psi, so they represent 4psi each. From 0psi to 20psi there are three intervals over a narrower physical distance. That's where the gauge is pretty non-linear--I wouldn't read too much into readings below 20psi.

It is 1/0 meaning 0 (zero) gauge. It is the thinnest grade of the zero gauge wires...4/0 being the thickest of the ones you listed. I was at first confused when I first started getting into acquiring this thick heavy gauge wire for my power inverter/battery setup.

It starts out with the lowest amount of 1 gram, or ounce etc... and goes up from there. I cannot determinine the high limit as it goes into an overload reading if I excede it. I bought this mainly to measure jewelry weights and it works just fine for that.

You can see the gauge in the picture. It looks like a tire guage. The skinny silver thing to the left of the pump. Just screw the needed in and push it into the ball and a reading pops out the other end just like a tire gauge.

Your gauge may be broken. You will need to contact the company to have this part replaced.

My gauge reads high when pumping but is pretty close when I shut the pump off.
