Hows is going everybody, I hope you all had a good thanksgiving.I was wondering how much oil you put in the oil bath type air filters the owners manual says to just  add but does tell you how much you should add if empty.

Thanks again
elliott

I'd figure about 3/4"-1" of oil, that's about where my mark puts it

here in Alberta, Canada, we have to run heater tubing or the carb will freeze up in the winter, on the old sa-200's anyways not sure about the classic I & II's.  Never had any problems with dust though, not very dusty round here.
