Checking the oil level

Check the oil level in the engine when the machine is standing horizontally with the engine switched off.

Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Then insert the dipstick again.

Take the dipstick out again and read the oil level.

The engine dipstick

The oil level should be between the markings on the dipstick. If the level is approaching the “ADD” mark, lower notch, top up the oil to the “FULL” mark, upper notch on the dipstick.
