Swithed from NH134 fluid to F200

When I had the recall done on my TC45D I had the dealer use F200 multi-season hydraulic oil instead of the standard (heavier weight) NH134 when the refilled the system. Warm-up and initial operation is noticably faster. I'm happy with the change. Note - HST seems to be smoother and quiter the first 15 minutes of operation.

John, thanks for the info. I asked this question some time ago over on the Lubrication and Oil board and I might have here at NH. Let me know if your opinion changes. I will likely switch when the 300 hour change comes. Since I'm in Michigan, a good percentage of my use is in cooler weather so this is of a real interest to me. To bad NH doesn't give you the option when purchasing based on you location!
