Pull your manual offline if you don't have a hard copy. They list alternatives. Pretty sure most ISO 32 hydraulic fluids meeting Mil 5606 standards will work. When I replaced my seals recently, mine had a red colored fluid in them. SeaStar is clear. What they list below are mostly aeronautical hydraulic fluids.

Here go, copied this from page 36 the manual (http://www.seastarsolutions.com/wp-c...3/296784AT.pdf)
