Candia FS outboard model has an adjustment
screw located on the back of the tachometer gauge.
Turn the screw to the proper position. The proper po-
sition, either 2, 3, or 4, is determined by the number of
cylinders the engine has.
The tachometer must be set for different engines in-
stalled. This is typically done at the factory with the
aid of a software program for the Four Winns®/VDO
module.
B. Speedometer
The tachometer gauge for the 214 Candia FS I/O is
shown below along with the table detailing the DP
settings. See Figure E5 and DP Settings Table.
