Duane,
I add Shell Rotella T 5w-40 after hydraulic oil filter changes and to make up lost oil. I drained the tank once to replace the PTO solenoid and added a couple gallons of Shell Rotella T 5w-40. The hydraulics work fine and it seems to start easier in the winter with the Shell Rotella T 5w-40. When I change my hydraulic oil I plan to use half Shell Rotella T 5w-40 and half regular 10w-40. I have 450 hours now and plan to change oil at about 500 hours.
