Abene VHF3 1964. Oil levels knee

Hello all,

I just got my first mill, an Abene VHF3 from 1964.



It seemed ok, but sadly I have my first problem. An heavily leaking oil seal from the drive-axis from the feeding. And sadly this axle is totally messed up. But I probably can fix that.

Problem now is that I have to empty and refill the knee with oil.
But I see more plugs in the knee. And I know by now it has two oil reservoirs in the knee.
One for the X and Y axis, and one for the Z axis.
But what is what and what are the levels.
I found another thread here about it, but my machine is a bit older and a little different and has no level-glass in the knee.



I got from Abene the manual for my machine, but for this type they could only find the Swedish version.:( But these plugs are not mentioned in the graphics in this manual.

And what oil are you using?

Hope someone can help me here.
