Feeling the Burn. When you start working out your legs, whether it's intense walking or using the leg press machine, your body starts converting glucose, or glycogen, into lactic acid inside your muscles. The muscle cells use lactic acid as fuel, as well as adenosine triphosphate.
Hydraulic Oil Temperatures We at KJA recommend maintaining the hydraulic elevator oil at a temperature of 37Â°C (100Â°F) plus or minus 10 per cent. We are concerned with two things: the change in oil viscosity with the change in temperature and the possible breakdown of the oil at high temperatures.
Most owner's manuals will advise you to check the oil level when the engine is warm (after driving 10 or 15 minutes), about 5 minutes after you stop the engine. This allows the warmed oil to be fully circulated in the engine, and then drain down to the oil pan where its level can be measured by the dipstick.
