CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN ENGINE
CRANKCASE
1. Place the vehicle on level horizontal surface.
Engage the parking brake.
2. The level of oil is tested in 10 min. after en-
gine stop. During that time, oil flows into crankcase
sump.
3. Check the oil level with the help of dipstick
(with the cab raised). The oil level should be between the
lower and upper dipstick marks.
4. If necessary, add oil through a filling neck (see
Fig. Checking the oil level in the Mercedes-Benz engine
crankcase). Greases are used in accord with suggestions
of Appendices 2, 3.
If oil level is above the set mark, the engine can
