I've got some 35mm shows coming up and will be running
a pair of Kinoton FP30D's that have been idle for about
a year. I've done a through cleaning of projector &
lamphouse, but I have a question about the intermittent
oil level. (I can't locate the manuals at the moment)

This is the oil level with the projector "at rest".
>Should there be a little more or is this good?<

I found several bottles of this oil in the booth.
>Is this the intermittent oil, or is it another type?<

I also found an oil-squirt can in the booth, labeled
"for projectors", but it appears to be the same stuff.

THANKS!
