Well big mistake it took out one of my pumps that bill was 6grand, and the other day I was changing the filters and noticed metal shavings in the filters. Ive been running bobcats with brooms for 15 years never had a problem till now. Only common link is the hydraulic fluid. I drained the oil out of all the machines their was no shaving past the filters, I filled it up with Bobcat brand Fluid so hopefully damage is not that bad time will tell, their r a lot of anti wear additives in their fluid which im sure the over the table fluids lack.</p></blockquote><p></p>
