1. HWH jacks are IMMERSED in ATF when retracted
2. The ONLY cleaning or wipe that needs to be done is IF the shiny silver piston has sand/dirt/mud on the shaft. You then use water and soap to clean it OFF. There is NO reason to lube or wipe the shafts with anything on a correctly operating HWH jack system.
3. When a jack sticks from retracting, IF you can push it up in store mode with your hand/arm, you have weak springs. If it takes a lever or force to push it up, the inner jack seals are defective and the jack needs replaced or rebuilt.
4. The Jack needs rebuilt or replaced---PERIOD. If you want to spray WD 40 or silicone, that will temporarily bypass the problem, but is NOT needed on a correctly functioning system
5. HWH under warranty will replace any jack that exhibits the sticking problem. Doug
