Hello. I have a nice A-C forklift( outside duty..unless ground is real soft..),will lift 5,000# OK but in need of some tlc...

What kind of hydraulic fluid would be in it ? Is there just one reservoir for both the lift as well as the hydrostatic unit ? Could I use 'universal tractor fluid' or a specific brand?

Seems the tank is on the left side behind the front wheel. I'd like to drain and refill, put on new filters while I'm at it.

Thanks for any help.

Jay
