Latest repairs:
Second cylinder is installed.
I replaced two more hoses that had deteriorating skin. These seem to be the last of the bad hoses. I pumped out all of the old hydraulic oil I could, and replaced it. I used a five-gallon can of oil, plus what was left of the gallon I previously bought. It now has about six gallons of oil, and seems to need a little more, so we'll call it a seven-gallon system. The old oil looked like it was emulsified (mixed with water).
Bought two new hoses from Voorhies ($38.12 plus tax= $41.36)
Bought a five gallon container of "Tractor" hydraulic oil from NAPA ($31.49 plus tax = $34.17)
Total maintenance cost to date $437.73
