I have a D6b with a #25 cable control, but don't know how to check the oil level in the control unit. Is there a plug on the side? Do you just fill up the tube to the top? And what type of oil is correct? 90 weight EP? Thanks for your help.

That's correct, late model units just fill the stand pipe on the LH side.

My 25 has a plug on the RH side for the level check and a filler plug between the fairlead sheaves, basically right between the drums.
