Reading the hour meter
Ignore the last two digits on the right, they are tenths and hundreds of an hour (yes I know, crazy, but that’s the way they do it). So the last 2 numbers (on the right) are % of an hour, not hours or minutes.
So 00564.66
Would be five hundred sixty four hours and 66% of an hour.
The last two digits are NOT MINUTES. They are % of an hour. So 50 would be 50% of an hour or 30 minutes. It would go to 99% (60 minutes) before turning to 1 hour.
And YES, in the more modern hour meter, the red light is supposed to be flashing when gas is being produced. I do not know why they chose red but it’s a Good Thing to see it flashing.
