Used this item to upgrade my shop floor press. The item came in with the squeeze handle damaged from shipping. Since I was going to attach a foot pedal for control, this was not an issue. I did notice that the fluid level was low. I drained it all out and bought some STP Hydraulic Jack Oil. It uses less than a quart. It took a few attempts to raise before the jack would move. After all the air was bled out I topped off the fluid level and it now works like a charm. Harbor Freight is twice as much for the same item type.
