Has anyone found out a non OEM replacement for Cub Cadet Hydrostatic oil?
Reason being...as per the ruling Magnusson-Moss Act requires that OEM's provide the information about a maintenance items so after market products can be used as a replacements. The act states that they have to provided a suitable oil type (e.g. SAE, JASO, etc. type oil) or provided the oil free of charge or provide an FTC exemption letter stating that there are no other oils able to do the same job.
This is why automotive, atv, snowmobile, etc. manufacturers cannot dishonor warranty's if non OEM oils are used as a maintenance replacement item.
Has anyone contacted MTD or their dealers about this?
I centainly would like the oil free....
