2019 T450 1900hrs . I live in East Texas and most of all my use will be hot weather. I currently have ISO 46 oil in it and changed all filters when I bought it in Jan of this year. It runs great but I have noticed when it is used and warmed up the hydraulic lines whine a bit especially in the right boom. If I let it idle and cool off a bit the whining goes away. My question is would I see a benefit in going to ISO 100 oil? I regularly blow the radiator out and have run water through it as well. It seems to be cooling ok at least the water side has never gotten over the first mark on the temp gauge ( will call it the 1/4 tank mark). This is my first skid steer so pardon the ignorance. Should I just go with it as is? Thanks Mark
