I HAVE A 41 H THAT HAS A LIFT-ALL AND THE DIP-STICK IS MISSING FROM UNDER THE FILL CAP.
I THINK IT IS LOW AND DONT KNOW HOW MUCH OIL TO ADD. ANYBODY KNOW HOW LONG THE STCIK IS AND HOW FAR FROM BOTTOM UP IS THE FULL MARK. THANKS FOR
THE HELP.

The top of the oil level is approx. 9 inches below the top of the filler neck. You can make yourself a dipstick out of an old car dipstick bent and marked to the right length.

you might try sticking a bar magnet down into the pipe. you might get lucky and find it in there. I repaired mine a few years ago and when I opened it up I found one in the pipe.

It don't hurt to overfill them. If you can tell that it is working when you pull the lever back then you know it is not dry. You might just add a quart to be on the safe side.

I remember pretty well, the length of ours to the line was 6.5" it is submerged in oil, and can fluctuate radically during use, or if a cylinder is extended. They can be filled to the top, they only need a place for the excess oil to go when heating expands it, or a cylinder is retracted. Go for a piece of 9ga wire crimped into a washer. JimN

Then I would just save what you drain and measure what you pour back into it to equal 6 quarts.

6 quarts is the capacity. I guess if you have never drained it, now would be a good time to do so. That way you can have fresh clean oil and a correct level to measure.

Get a piece of smooth wire, straighten about a foot of it. Dip it down into the fill tube and mark where you stop lowering it measure from there to where the oil is sticking to your "dipstick" and compare with the info given in this thread.

You can't overfill it. Just make sure to have nothing hooked up or whatever's hooked up lowered all the way down. Then just fill it until you can see it in the fill tube.

I have the same problem on my M. I drain the oil into a clean container and measure it back. Once you know you have 6 quarts you could make a dip stick with a steel rod and a fendor washer - just weld the rod to the washer. May take a little grinding to make everything fit. Mark the dip stick when you know the level is correct. I'll get around to doing this for my M one day.
