Types of Hydraulic Fluid

What you need to know to find the correct oil for use in skidsteer loader and farm tractor hydraulic systems. Visit loaderpartssour....

My supervisor told me he saw a warning ⚠️ light that said something about “Caustic Fluid” needing to be serviced. I turned the skid steer on and didn’t see any warning lights. Anyone know what caustic fluid in a skid steer is? Or maybe he read it wrong. Can’t find it online

I just purchased a 855e tracked loader and am wanting to change out the transmission fluid, the loader manual says to use case tch fluid. I cannot find that fluid so what can I use in it. Thanks

Thanks guys!so what kind of oil I put in my 632 clark skid steer bobcat?

[@2leslierae]

Do know if there is an alternative to Mobil 424 hydraulic fluid?

[@ramnaik5168]

Sir which hydrolic oil i used to my jcb 3dx

[@troysimon9933]

If opting to use a...well..a..NOT..over $100.oo for just ONE 5-gallon bucket brand of hydraulic fluid."those CASE equipment fellas are awfully..proud, of ANYthing they sell", ..Im assuming that..itd recommended to completely drain out any hydraulic fluid in Case 1830 uni-loader...and only THEN, re-fill with new,"different brand" hydraulic fluid. My question..IS.."IS it necessary to do this..OR..are the 2 different "brands" of hydraulic fluid, similar "enough", that one, could be added TO, wharfs remaining in the hydraulic fluid system reservoir? After hose replacements, "due to..LEAKING hoses.", only about 3 gallons was recoverable, out of an 8 gallon capacity system. DO I..needed to DRAIN what's left..OUT..and replace the fluid, with.yknow, ONLY "one" brand??

what type of hydraulic fluid goes into my 1994 Bobcat 753

[@LeviBurkholder]

The information in this video details the correct options for your Bobcat 753. I have used this in mine while I had it.

thank for this information🧠😷😎👂✌️😳

[@lumberjackdreamer6267]

Bad advice. Skid steer don’t have hydrostatic transmission. They have hydraulic motors. Most require AW oil, 32 or 46, zinc based, with high viscosity index (above 140)

[@loaderpartssource1792]

It is always good to question and double check info found online(and elswhere). This info is years old, there are newer oil grades available. I leave this info up because it is still valid. The hydraulic motors and the drive pump in a skidsteer make up the hydrostatic transmission. Using AW32 or AW46 oil will result in decreased life. I advise against it.

[@lumberjackdreamer6267]

@@loaderpartssource1792 I looked at 3 machines I have in my driveway. A Volvo track loader, a Genie boom lift and a tracked backhoe loader. All 3 take AW32 or 46, high viscosity. For example Chevron Rando HDZ 46. Tractor fluids is for wet brakes and wet clutches.
