weather operation, we recommend Hyken Glacial Blue.
DO NOT thin hydraulic fluid with brake fluid, and DO NOT
use brake fluid in place of hydraulic fluid.
If an emergency situation occurs, any anti-wear hydraulic
fl uid can be used, but the system should be fl ushed
and the fl uid changed as soon as reasonably possible.
Hydraulic fl uids should not be mixed due to possible
compatibility problems.
The recommended fl uids are compatible and may be
mixed, however, the cold weather operating characteristics
of Hyken Glacial Blue will be adversely aff ected.
Close the cover on the power pack enclosure and
battery box. Make sure they are secured with a
