Alternate hydraulic oils are available, but they do not equal the performance or longevity
of the “Hydrex XV” oil. Consult the following information supplied by the oil distributor.
HYDRAULICS
Some­ equipment­ and­ components­ such­ as­ a­ fl­uid­ engagement­ clutch­ (PTO)­ have­ their­ own­ lubrication­
requirements. Consult their manufactures manual for that information.
