another thought

I talked to Mohawk about my used A-7...they confirmed that I could use
synthetic (Redline) ATF instead; 
so far so good; 
my shop is insulated, and goes from 50-90 F when the HVAC isn't on.
  
ATF may be an option for other brands...ask and see if that will make it
easier for you.

Subject: [Shop-talk] Hydraulic fluid question

I needed a couple gallons of hydraulic fluid for my new lift. The fluid 
spec'ed was "10 weight common hydraulic fluid (AW32 or AW46)".

I asked a friend to pick some up for me as he was right near the place. 
What he brought me is labeled "AW Hydraulic Oil ISP 46".

Are the terms 'oil' & 'fluid' used interchangeably? Is this the right 
stuff?  What do I need to know?
