SWDM40 OPERATION & MAINTENANCE MANUAL
8.3.11 Checking Engine Oil Level
After engine shut-down, check engine oil level. Never check the oil level when the engine is
running.
1)Open side seal plate or extract directly.
Note: When checking oil level, the drilling machine should be on level ground. As heat makes
something expand and cold makes it contract, thus engine oil level should be checked after
about 30 minutes and the measurement is correct.
