Guys,

I am coming up on the 50 hour mark on my BX25 and I was planning on heading into the dealer today to pick up the required filters and fluids for the 50 hour service. I was looking in the manual and it shows for the 50 hour service to just replace the filter and clean the screen for the Hydraulic Fluid. It doesn't list to replace the fluid. Is this correct? Also, I would like to switch the engine to Synthetic Oil as I run Mobil 1 in everything else I have and have owned in the last 10 years. I live in Ottawa, Canada where it can be bittery cold in the Winter and pretty hot in the summer. The manual mentions 10W30 or 15W40. I was thinking Delvac 15W40 Synthetic.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

I'd replace the fluid t00 as there might be cuttings in the tranny that need flushed out with the fluid.
I did both on my BX23 at the 50 hour mark.
I think most people do both at the 50 hour point.
