A valve position indicator assembly is disclosed herein. The valve position indicator assembly includes a gearing assembly operable to transmit an input rotation to an output rotation. The gearing assembly includes a first gearing member driven to the output rotation by the input rotation. A rate of the output rotation is a fraction of and less than a rate of the input rotation. The valve position indicator assembly includes: a position indicia engaged with the first gearing member such that the indicia and the first gearing member move together; a scale plate including a plurality of graduated indicia defining a scale of rotation movement of the first gearing member; a mounting bracket comprising a first slot having a length extending between a first end and a second end; and a debris shield having a first end, second end, and inclined frustoconical sides.
