Help Support SkidSteer Forum:

I have never heard of that brand.
Is it hydrostatic drive? or mechanical?
Generally, hydrostatic drive machines will work happily with engine oil grade, 20W50 etc or heavier AW46? hydraulic oil i think it was. It needs to be heavier than standard hydraulic oil to lubricate the pumps/bearings.
If its mechanical and your only hydraulics are cylinders, standard hydraulic oil shoudl be fine. If it runs wet discs as a clutch, you will need ATF. ATF is pretty easy to recognise though as i'm sure you're aware.
There are oil debates all the time on here, so its our choice which way you go in the end.
