Default Leaking Hydaulic

Hi,

I just picked my 1980ish Hi Lo up from storage and it is leaking what I think is hydraulic fluid. And it will not raise all of the way. Any thoughts on this? Im new to this.

Thanks!
Melissa

You may be low on hydraulic fluid. Check the fluid level with the top down. The fluid level should be 1" below the filler cap. Use auto transmission fluid if needed. If the top does not raise fully then, get back here on the forum
