    Found out that pressman was using wrong oil (hygrade motorcycle oil) --- drained oil, cleaned filter and started refill with the correct oil. I am not sure if the oil fill round gage reads or not, seems an oily color, but does not look like fluid.

    How much oil is held in the press? Can too much oil be added? Can't get the red light to go out?

    Changed oil --- refilled at filter --- about 3-4 gallons --- does not register in glass (glass is clear but yellow) can not tell how much oil (though 3-4 gallons should be enough) also added about 2 gallons to the side of the press. Light still red --- check 3 fuses for the oil pump (in the coffin) ... I was wondering if there could be a blown fuse on one of the computer boards.

    Resolved the problem. It was a white Siemans circuit breaker in the coffin.
