Lippert hydraulic jack lube?

Tried looking for answers in the forums but didn't find any, so please forgive me if you've seen this before.



I live in the Northeast. The rig is winterized and I usually go out and run the engine and generator for 20 minutes every other week during the winter, just to keep the fluids moving and batteries charged.



I've seen the debates over whether to leave the jacks up or down, and I've decided to leave them up (it's on relatively level ground) and I cycle the jacks when I run the unit. I want to know what I can use to lubricate the jacks that won't ruin the seals. I've read that WD-40 will eat up the rubber seals, so that's out. Silicone maybe? Is that ok for the shaft? Any constructive thoughts are appreciated.
