Moderators if this is not a good forum for the above machine perhaps you could direct me to a better site.

I've found operator and parts manuals that are similar but don't have much information on oil levels. There is a site glass but it is not possible to fill to that level as there is a screened opening on the bottom sump and oil pours out. There is no other method such as a port or dipstick to determine the oil level.

If anyone should have information relating to this machine would be much appreciated.

TIA

Found the answer. There is a float with pin which is visible in the site glass. It should be between the two lines. Not something one would notice easily.

Oh I get it...you were pouring oil in waiting for the oil to reach the sight glass..

The float pin on my industrial overlock (Union Lockstitch 39500) came with a red painted tip, so it's high visibiliity.

friquant. Like a frequent, piquant flyer.
