how does the level gauge work
and can the level gauge be purchased separately?
1 answer-
ProductExpert6· 14 years ago
It has a sight level gauge on the side of the unit. It will show you the level of oil in the tank. You can view the gauge on the side by using the zoom feature for the product. The gauge can be purchased separately from our parts department at 1.800.222.5381, option #3.
