They use a biodegradable hydraulic oil. I don't know if this is due to an effort to 'be green', or if the bio-oil is less likely to foul the pool if something leaks.

Biodegradable hydraulic oil? Wouldn't that need to be replaced VERY frequently? I wonder if it's some sort of vegetable oil like castor oil or corn oil.

According to the spec sheet, we should not have to replace the oil for 3 years. We are using Mobil EAL 224H biodegradable. OF COURSE, it supposedly won't last as long in a hot climate (we just finished 17 consecutive days over 90 degrees - it rained today so it only got to 85... steambath anyone?).
I never heard back from Baldor via email. I'll see if I can call them Monday (if I can remember).
