[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 5582, member: 82"] Hydraulic oil is made for hydraulic systems, not hydrostatic systems like skid steers use. In a *standard* hydraulic system there is a gear or vane pump that has limited moving parts and low viscosity oil works well. However, hydrostatic or piston pump systems have lots of moving parts that require heavier oil to keep them lubricated or failure can and will occur. I think heat may pay a large part in this too. When i got my first bobcat i thought the oil couldn't be rite, it was using engine oil!!! but a quick call to bobcat and they confirmed that it MUST run heavier oil like 10w30 for the hydrostatics. They said to never ever use hydraulic oil as it will damage the pumps. [/QUOTE]
