The light, welded oil sump is attached to the engine block and is sealed off by a rubber sealing. Suction pipes to the lube oil pump and if used, for the separator, as well as for the main lube oil distributing pipe for crankshaft bearings, are incorporated in the oil sump. From the main distributing pipe the lube oil is led up to the main bearing through a hydraulic jack, by means of which the bearing cap can be lowered and lifted, e.g. when inspecting the bearings. An oil dipstick is located in the engine block. The oil dipstick indicates the maximum and minimum limits between which the oil level may vary. Keep the oil level near the max. mark and never allow the level to go below the min. mark. The limits apply to the oil level in a running engine. One side of the dipstick is graduated in centimeter. This scale can be used when checking the lubricating oil consumption.
