Discussion:
what type of grease/lube to use on mast in **freezer environment** ?

Does anyone know the best type of grease or lubricant to use on the mast of the Flexi in **freezer** environments?

We are experiencing our mast getting locked in the UP positions, because the hydraulic cables are not winding up properly. We are thinking that the lubricant we used is too thick.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
