[QUOTE="Fishfiles, post: 12746, member: 782"] Long before I read Bobcat's service bulletin which makes the recomendation to switch to hydraulic oil in the hyd. system in place of the formerly used motor oil , I was using hydraulic oil , I have said my feelings on other threads on this topic so I won't go there -------the real debate should be on what type and weight of hydraulic oil should be used to substitue the OEM recomended hydraulic fluid that Bobcdat sells , a MSDS sheet taken to your local oil distributor would give you the answer , hydraulic oil comes in so many variations , 10 weight , 32, 68 with many different additives such as anti foaming , non electrical conductive to name a few , different systems have different needs , personally I feel HyGuard HG fluid is the best all around hydraulic oil out there , it's alittle more expensive and thicker [/QUOTE]
