[QUOTE="reaperman, post: 73701, member: 6675"] I found bobcat hydraulic fluid at the dealer isnt much more expensive than 10w-30 motor oil that sports bobcats name. I changed engine oil a while ago and bought bobcat brand 10w30 because they sell it in 2 1/2 gallon jugs for about the same price as buying motor oil at a automotive store. At that time, the bobcat hydro fluid was only $2 higher than engine oil for a 2 1/2 gallon jug. For the little difference in price I wouldnt think twice about getting recommended oil for my machine. I figure if hydro fluid is going to be in my machine for 1000 hours, it better be what my machine likes to drink. [/QUOTE]
