Engine Oil Circulation
THE OIL TANK AND FILTER
The level of oil in the supply tank should never be allowed to fall below the low level
mark and, upon replenishment, should not be higher than the top level mark other-
wise, when starting the engine, the bulk of oil in the crankcase sump may be greater
than the space available in the tank.
A metal gauze strainer is secured in the tank end of the feed pipe union.
After the first 500 miles, again at 1,000 miles, and subsequently at 5,000 mile intervals,
it is recommended that the oil tank is drained, the oil filter cleaned in petrol and the
tank replenished with new oil.
