[QUOTE="dfb, post: 123163, member: 11792"] Does AW32 hydraulic oil have the lubricity properties required of a hydrostatic system is the question I would have in deciding. After having to rebuild both wheel motors in my 742B that had AW32 in the system for not that many hours, I decided to swap it out for the Bobcat fluid to remove any doubt that the correct stuff was in there. To me, the piece of mind the drive system was lubricated properly was worth the difference the OE Bobcat fluid may have cost. Particularly after realizing that replacing the drive motors would have been a very expensive job had they not been repairable with just a reseal. HTH. [/QUOTE]
