water is compressible
Hydraulic jack oil at auto parts or Wal-Mart store
Because of increse pressure ,,,,and according to pascal law
Open the drain screw that holds the body of the hydraulic jack. This way you can addhydraulic oil to the hydraulic jack.
Hydraulic oil and hydraulic fluid are different. Hydraulic fluid is used in small systems such as car brakes. Hydraulic oil is used in large systems such as loaders.

Should use jack oil, but you can use transmission fluid if you have to. 10W motor oil works also.
Use "Hydraulic Jack Oil" only
No. Only hydraulic oil can be used in hydraulic jacks. Hydraulic oil is compressed (a requirement for use in hydraulic cylinders) so that there are no air or other gases dissolved in it. Before adding hydraulic fluid to the jack, be certain that the fluid has been sitting for at least 24 hours to avoid introducing air into the hydraulic fluid in the chamber.You should be able to purchase hydraulic oil (sometimes it will be labeled "Hydraulic Jack Oil/Fluid or Jack Oil/Fluid) in small or large quantities, inexpensively, at any auto parts store worthy of the name. It can also be purchased at some Walmarts and any heavy equipment supply stores.
These jacks generally use hydraulic oil to operate the hydraulic system. There are a number of different types of oil for these jacks, but they are so similar that they are often marketed as "hydraulic jack oil" and there is little to no differentiation.
