What is this cap for. Someone told me it covered a manual override hub where a handle would go to pump gas when the power went out.

Wayne used them on the 851 and 853 also. It's called a "Hub Cover".

A lot of pumps had an access hole for a hand crank. I've got a rotary pump out of a 60 that has the setup for a hand crank. I did not take it out so don't know if it was setup w/ elect. motor.
