| Sometimes oil leaks on large machines, such as paper machines, can be hard to find. When the oil level in the reservoir drops but no puddles appear, look for a leak that is running directly into a u-drain or other sewer openings. If you use oil coolers and the oil pressure is higher than the water pressure, disconnect the water side of the cooler, turn on the oil pumps and see if oil drains from the water lines, indicating a blown cooler.
