Default "leaking" hydraulic jack

The 'release' is a push in button, not a 'twist' screw, so I cannot

Is there anything I can do short of replacement? ---- paul


i notice that the refill oil they sell claims to seal leaks. wouldn't
be hard, all the seal sweller solvents etc. i use it to refill my
jack, can't vouch as to whether it's done anything for the early
stages of leak i'm at.
