Wondering how do I know how much oil is in the tank and how to know when I reached the max amount I’m supposed to have in it. I don’t see a site glass or a dip stick anywhere on the tank. Anyone know anything about this? If so I’d really appreciate your help! thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At that point, filling the reservoir to 3/4 full should be sufficient as with a two cylinder system that works in opposition the level in the reservoir should never change.
