This bracket/tin shield was behind the faces and fits in next to the pricer numbers. There was only one and it was on only one of the face plates, so I'm assumming that I'm missing one or more?
Can anyone tell me what the purpose of this shield was and how many there actually was behind each face plate? It appears to be a light shield, so maybe there was supposed to be 2 for each face plate?? I hope someone knows??

Here is a picture of the shield


And this is a picture of it where I'm assumming that it goes!

Kevin, It goes on the end of the rod for the pricer wheels. It fits on the opposite end of the tenths numbers. One for each rod. So you need 2 of them. Hope that helps. Kent.

Well, I was pretty sure that I needed at least one more but what the heck are they for? Am I right in assumming that they are some sort of light shield??
I take it from your response, that it goes on the other end from where I have placed it??

Well, It was on that end on mine, Kevin. The only thing that I could figure it was on there for was a splash guard for when a person returned the nozzle into the hole. Just a thought. Kent.
