Re: Correct hydraulic oil

[Sachelle Babbar <sbabbar@iris.nyit.edu>]

The oil is the same and compatible with Pentosin. The hose that was
replace, was it the one with the restrictor? If the new one didn't have it
that may be your problem. Another thing, was the system cleaned bfore the
new hose was put on? There may have been debris in the line. Just some
possibilities.
