Can the etrailer Tongue Weight Scale Be Stored In Sub-Zero Temperatures?

Question:
What is the approximate freezing temperature for the oil in the gauge of the e99044 tongue weight scale? I would like to store it in an unheated storage compartment of my trailer and I use/store the trailer in temperatures which can go as low as -5F.

The etrailer Tongue Weight Scale for Campers and Utility Trailers # e99044 like many scales use hydraulic oil which can be stored at 32F to 77F.
So you wanting to store this in your trailer which gets down to -5F is a bit too cold for this. Ideally this should not be stored on its side or the oil will leak and should also be stored in an area that is air-conditioned and that can maintain constant temperatures.
