How do I check the oil level?
1. The splitting column must be
in run-in state. Now remove
the dipstick.
2. Clean the dipstick and the oil
seal.
3. Replace the dipstick fully
into the oil reservoir.
4. Now remove the dipstick
again and read off the oil
level.
If the oil level is between the two marking on the oil
dipstick, there is sufficient oil in the reservoir.
If the oil level is below the lower marking, more oil
should be added with the aid of a clean funnel.
