I just went through all that myself in the last couple of years. Kind of like filling your car tires. At first, I borrowed one of my crewmates nitrogen tank and regulator, as he had one for his airplane landing gear. I think it only went to 500 lb. Plus it was a little constraining with the short hose he had. Long story short, I had the local hydraulic shop make me a longer hose, I bought a thousand pound regulator off eBay, and I just use his tank. (Although he fills it up and charges it to me anyway.!) I don't know what model you have, but I have a Sailtec, and even though I read in the manual to put something like 10 or 12 oz of oil in before charging, I figured well, they would have done that already. And before the Summer was out, it had lost its charge. Next year, I put the oil in, and voila still stiff as.. it needs to be.
