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.
Oil with a startup thickness of 100 that becomes the appropriate thickness of 10 when fully warmed up is called a 10W-30 grade motor oil. This is NOT as thick as a straight 30 grade oil at startup and it is NOT as thin as a straight 10 grade oil at full operating temperature.
