6.6 CHECKING OIL LEVEL

Before checking the oil level, be sure the ignition switch is OFF. The oil level
should be checked with the aircraft in level attitude.
Remove the oil tank cap, turn the propeller in the correct sense of rotation
until you hear the oil gurgle in the tank. Insert the cleaned dipstick fully for
measurement and verify the oil level.
The oil level should be in the upper half (between the "50%" and the max.
mark) and should never fall below the min. mark.
Difference between "min" and "max" mark is 0,45 litres.

approximately in the middle.
