Default Cobra Trailer Hydraulic Jack Issue

Hi,

I am currently flying it in the U.S. Sports Class Nationals in Parowan, UT,
USA. The flying here has been spectacular!

I own a small share of a Cobra trailer for our DG-1000 sailplane. However,
the hydraulic jack used to lift the fuselage of the glider does not seem to
be functioning well. We can't pump it up to the highest position. Can you
please offer advice for fixing the issue. We need to be able to jack it up
to be able to lower the glider's landing gear. Does it perhaps need more
hydraulic fluid, or does it need to be replaced? If it needs hydraulic
fluid, what type of fluid should we use, and how to we do the job of putting
it into the unit?

I'm hoping that someone on this group will have a quick suggestion or tip.
It will be easier for me to receive e-mail than to check this group, so
please reply to my e-mail address directly.

Best Regards,

Paul Remde
