Can someone explain to me the principle of operation of a gravity fed oiler on a pump system. How does it maintain a constant level in the pump reservoir? Is it because when the reservoir is full, there is a little pressure inside and the pressure is higher than the gravity oiler not allowing any oil to flow?
