[QUOTE="Bobcatdan, post: 91500, member: 7339"] While it is true, today Bobcat says use only Bobcat hydraulic fluid and nothing else. In servicing somebody's Bobcat unit, I will only use Bobcat fluid. What's funny if you go back to the early S and T manuals, they had a chart of of all the hydraulic fluids that were acceptable. On that chart, Bobcat fluid was the only fluid acceptable the full temperature range. At work we run 10w30 in almost everything. Our S220 has 20,000 hours with 10w30 in the system. Other then a drive motor at 14,000 hours, the unit is still all original. At 14,000 hours, I can hardly fault oil for the motor. [/QUOTE]
