answer 2
There is an internal spring that returns the cylinder to its "home" position after the pressure is released with a screw valve (like on all bottle jacks). The spring on the one I have does not return it all the way home, and I some times have to assist it by pushing up on it with my hand for the last inch or two. It always moves far enough away from the pressed work piece to remove the piece.

Question

How do you add hydraulic oil?

I left the release valve open too far and lost some oil. Now the cylinder won't extend very far or build pressure.

With all the pressure released from the cylinder and with the handle in the down position remove the cap and fill to top with hydraulic jack oil (purchased locally from hardware store). Fasten cap back on making sure that the o-ring is in place and you are complete.
