hydraulic/transmission fluid?

[george88]

Howdy,

Is there another recommended tractor hydraulic/transmission fluid that meets Bobcat standards that I can use in my CT230 in lieu of the "company" brand?

thanks,
george

Whoops, one more thing, I have found a list of fluids from prior messages with similar questions. The new question is: Can I mix those fluids (Mobile 424) with the Bobcat fluid or should I do a complete changeover? Unlikely that a completely changeover would give me 100% Mobile 424.

Walmart has Shell Spirax, the Donax TD replacement. It is recommended for the orange and red Daedong tractors, McCormick, Kioti, etc. I don't know if it's ok for the Daedong tractors if they are painted white.

If you ever hook up your hydraulics to a cylinder or implement that another tractor hooked up, you will mix more that will be left in a change. In my opinion, you are worrying too much.
