Van Norman FG5000 Instruction Manual And Parts List page 25

After installation, the oil level in the plastic container will start to drop. The base of the oiler
has been preset at the factory to the proper height. When the oil level in the reservoir in the
base casting reaches the preset height the level in the plastic container will stabilize. It may
be necessary to refill the container after level has stabilized.
3. A depth gage is provided with the machine for checking the oil level through the hole in the
table (Figure 10A). The overall length of the gage pin should be set to equal the thickness
of the machine table (Figure 10B). Set pin to bottom of table and tighten set screw on side
of gage (Figure 10C). The oil level line marked on the gage pin is 1/16" above the bottom of
the table.

4. In the center hole of the table is a 7/16"-14 set screw. This was installed during shipping of
the machine to keep any debris out of the hole. Remove set screw and discard.
