Cable parts

If you have a Lowes or Home Depot, Ace Hardware, or any hardware store, they can probably fix you up. Good luck.

Manual crank

I'm not aware of any Hi-Lo that doesn't have a manual pump jack to raise the top and a release valve to manually lower it. The pump jack is built onto the electric pump.

If the top is up for more than a couple of hours, it will usually settle down onto the safety bar requiring the slight lifting of the top to allow the release of
the safety bar.

A/C Refrigerant

Sorry you loose, most all A/C's prior to 2000 would be R22, but better check the model tag. The cycling off and on is normal, if the room temp is comfortable, you are in good shape.
