2.6 Checking of filling level

Visual checking
The transparent lubricant vessel allows visual
checking of the filling level. Such checking needs
regularly to be carried out for safety reasons.
If the vessel was emptied below the
„min" mark, the entire system has to
be vented.
Automatic checking
The pumps of the KFGS series are provided for
automatic checking of the filling level. If the level
falls below the „min" mark, the lubrication process
is stopped with the error message „FLL" shown
on the display.
