A small bottle jack lost all its hydraulic fluid after tipping over, leaving it inoperable.▶ 0:03 Kent refilled it at home using automatic transmission fluid purchased at Walmart as a substitute for dedicated bottle jack fluid — a viable alternative when specialty fluid is unavailable.▶ 0:19 The fill procedure: remove the side service port plug, add fluid to the bottom edge of the port opening, then reinstall the plug snug.▶ 0:30 After refilling, he cycled the jack several times to circulate fluid through the internal passages.▶ 1:59 Operating procedure covered: turn the release valve clockwise to close before pumping, use the main handle to raise the cylinder, use the secondary fine-adjustment fitting for additional lift, and turn the release valve counterclockwise to lower under load.▶ 0:47 The jack's estimated lift capacity is around 1,000 pounds, with roughly six to seven inches of cylinder travel, sized for jacking trailer axles on small trailers.▶ 2:19 Kent also mentions an upcoming tiller bushing repair on a nutshell pram named Excuse Me in preparation for a maritime rendezvous tied to Virginia Sail 250.▶ 3:45
