Rotella vs Kubota's UDT hydraulic oil

[Arky217]

I want to change the hydraulic oil in my L4200 that I just acquired, as I don't know when it was last changed.
Is the Rotella brand an ok replacement vs Kubota's UDT ?
I can get it about $10 cheaper per 5 gal.
It says on the can, "compatible with Kubota UDT".

Thanks,
Arky

You have the answer to your question.

There has been many posts on this. I think its a matter of opinions here. For a large tractor, it makes sense to try to save some money since it takes alot of fluids, but a little tractor like mine BX, it makes sense to me to spend the few extra bucks for kubota brand- I just hope I am not cheating myself out of a better third party brand.

Some people say any clean oil is better than old oil. But they are talking about engine oil. Maybe hy-trans the same.
