level of the engine oil. Add oil, if necessary, to the
upper mark on dipstick. Consult the Engine
Operation Manual for the type and viscosity grade
of the engine oil.
3. Check the level of the compressor oil. See section
Compressor regulating system. The pointer of
oil level gauge (OLG) should register in the green
range. Add oil if necessary. See section
