VIOLENTLY LOW ON OIL: Sketchy 1952 PITT Hydraulic Freight Elevator | Chicago, IL

Filmed 7/4/2025 I've seen this low on oil before, but not nearly this bad. The pump also sounds demonic when this thing cavitates. The startups also get extremely rough after it cavitates, which is not good, hopefully this will get fixed.
