Deadmans pedal & master cylinder

I have a very old stand up forklift Model #M30R4T071 I believe it is from the 1970's, My master cylinder is leaking oil and when I step on the deadmans pedal it no longer activates the forklift. I checked the master cylnder and it is empty. Does anybody know what kind of oil is used in the master cylinder?

Not oil, use brake fluid, DOT 3 or 4.

Fact of the week
The word "okay" (or its abbreviation "OK") originated as a humorous misspelling. In the 1830s, a fad in Boston involved using abbreviations of intentionally misspelled phrases. "OK" stood for "oll korrect," a playful mispronunciation of "all correct".
