would anybody on here have some info on what type of hydraulic oil and transmission oil to use in a Hyster H50XL forklift, it was built in the 1988 and unfortunately we do not have a service/operating manual for this unit.

We have a H50XL also. Book and service guy says AW32 (or ISO 32) hydraulic oil. Service guy said do not use regular HyGard. It is too heavy. Regular HyGard is between AW 46 and AW 68 in viscosity. Lo-vis HyGard meets AW32 specs (about 10w). He uses AW32 hydraulic oil from O'Reilly's in all the lifts he services. Has several hundred under service contract.
