Good morning everyone, I had a line blow out on my bucket lift Friday and I have lost probably around 5 gallons of oil I am estimating. I noticed the orange non-conductive line which lead me to learning about non conductive oil. Is there a way to tell if the system has non conductive oil already? My thoughts are that it is so old that some one somewhere has just dumped plain ole AW32 in it, and maybe that is fine if AW32 is non conductive?
The oil looks kinda nasty to me, almost like it has some moisture in it so I may end up changing it out anyway, I just was curious about the non conductive oil thing.
It is an old 1990 Versa Lift 36ft boom on a 1991 GMC Top Kick. Currently all it is used for is tree maintenance around my property, cleaning my chimney and working on my old two story house if that makes a difference in anything.
