Headstock cover leaks:
When the headstock cover is removed it is important to re-install it properly

There are three possible causes for oil to leak from the spindle covers.
1.
Reservoir over filled. (Correction: drain oil to proper level).
2.
Wrong weight oil. (Correction: Change to recommended lubricant)
3.
Blocked oil return. (Correction: Remove the headstock cover and while
turning the spindle blow air through the small oil holes located in the
top of the head.
