Not the bike this time but the most important part of the shed! Got one of the bike lifts as below and I need to top up the hydraulic fluid. Anyone got an idea what sort / viscosity I need? the Manual just says to use proper hydraulic juice.
I've got to get this fixed before my back gets any worse



Cheers

Found quite a few options for hydraulic jack oil from Amazon and Halfords etc but now I can't work out what the German is for the stuff!!

Just type in Hydraulic jack oil into ebay. Lots for sale there. In German Hydraulikzylinder Ol. You need two dots over the O.

Pretty much any oil will work as it doesn't have move fast or get hot, I use 10W40.

using to thick oil will make it very slow to let down

Use hydraulic fluid. Dead easy to get. D'not use engine oil!
