Oil dipstick EA 300 Engine
The oil-level is to be checked by means of the oil dipstick.
The prescribed filling level must not cross the „Max“-mark.
We recommend an oil-level of 2/3.
Sample picture
Oil should be refilled, if the oil-level is under 1/3 between the minimum and the maximum mark.
Fischer Panda recommends an oil-level of 2/3 between the minimum and the maximum mark.
If the oil-level is under the MIN-mark, check how many operating hours went by since the last oil change, by means
of your service manual or an existing oil change tag. - with operating hours between 50 and 150 hours it is only
necessary to refill oil. See „Refilling oil“ on page 2.
• with 150 operating hours or more the oil should be changed (See your generators’ service table)
• if the oil-level is under the minimum mark by less than 50h, there might be a technical problem! In that case, we
recommend going to a shop or a Fischer Panda service point.
• if the oil is cloudy or even „creamy“, coolant might have mixed with the oil. See a garage or a Fischer Panda service
point immediately.
