AW 32 XL Hydraulic Oil.
SAILTEC, INC. 2930 CONGER COURT, OSHKOSH, WI 54904 USA TEL: 920-233-4242 FAX: 920-233-8767 i...@sailtec.com TO ADD OIL TO AN INTEGRAL ADJUSTER Sailtec recommends using a premium hydraulic oil, ISO 32 or lighter. Oil, fittings & tube must be clean. Fully extend piston rod. Disconnect outside oil line from the upper fitting/elbow. Fill a 3/8” piece of flexible hose (CLEAR is best) with ISO Grade 32 premium oil. Attach the clear flexible hose to upper elbow (the 3/8” hose should push on to the 7/16” elbow threads). Place the other end of hose in a reservoir of hydraulic oil. This line will act as a siphon so it needs to be primed and free of most air. Connect a section of hose to the other (pump) elbow or stainless line and run it to a pan or bottle to collect the overflow oil. Slowly retract/push the piston rod into cylinder. [Hint: This works best with the integral upside down.] When oil stops being drawn from reservoir, the cylinder is filled, if the siphon line is free of most air bubbles. Reconnect the stainless line and pump system. If air bubbles are in the system it won’t hold pressure. If that happens, pull piston rod in and out a few times. You may have to allow gravity to work air out. CARTRIDGE VALVE ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Line up hex nuts (one under knob, one on stem). Install knob on stem. Lubricate ‘O’ ring on tip. Turn the valve into the valve port: turn in very slowly, wiggle the body a little so ‘O’ rings find port, slide into place. Tighten down securely with wrench.

Listers, What is the best fluid to use in my Navtec Hydraulic Backstay? I see lots of chatter about viscosity and moisture inhibitors, but no real definitive answer. Anyone have a recommendation?
