[HELP] How much oil?

[PixMan]

I would answer the question more exactly if I had access to the specifications. Lacking that, I went with common sense to suggest seeing what gets drained out and add that much back in to start. Then look for a sight glass to see how much additional might be needed.

Does the machine not have a sight glass for level? I think that would be unusual on such a good quality machine.

Now that I've clicked on the picture and viewed it at full size, I also see the two sight glasses.

I think the lower one might be for level, while often a high mounted one like that is used for seeing flow when the spindle is running.
