Lippert talks about temps less than 10 degrees in their manual:

In colder temperatures (less than 10° F) the jacks may extend and retract slowly due to the fluid’s molecular
nature. For cold weather operation, fluid specially formulated for low temperatures may be desirable. For a
list of approved fluid specifications, see TI-188.
