There are plenty of people here on TBN that use that very fluid.
I personally use Kubota sUDT/2 OEM fluid.
Tractor Supply in particular got a black eye years ago for selling a long outdated tractor hydraulic / transmission and marketing it as acceptable in modern equipment. I believe it was a "303" rated fluid, which should never be used in modern tractor transmissions.

I remember the 303 cluster.
Would have liked to use Mobil but it seems non existent around me. I run hydro guard in my 9500 deer combine and deere is very proud of it. The travelers appears to be the only thing around thanks for your input

Yes. Used it to top off my 2010 DK - 40 since new; AND per my selling dealer, I never changed the hydraulic oil - ONLY filters, HST AND HYDRAULIC, per scheduled maintenance intervals.
OEM filters from Kioti.
Had backhoe, T - N -T, cylinders and diverted valve for front remotes for grapple, snowblower, sickle bar, tree shear.
Just traded it with 1530 hours with NO hydraulic issues; other than small fitting leaks.
YMMV.

I picked up the Kioti filters Interesting about not changing the fluid. Is that recommended in service manual? I'm at 900hrs I thought the hydro fluid should be changed every 400hrs, I'm a little over since my last change at 400

If you changed it at 400 hrs, you should be good to go. Remember I NEVER changed it from factory through 1530 hours - and owned it from day one since 2010.
Its common sense that is the fluid stays clear and clean by filtration, (never milky color, indicating water in system); that it's a closed system and doesn't need to be changed out.
I'm living proof of the above. No manual or manufacturer is going to put that in print - duh
; they want to sell service and fluids, and their posse of lawyers would have a fit!
You do whatever works for you...
I have a brand new CK4020 AND a Kioti 750 track loader, that's $115,000 worth of equipment - I wouldn't risk damaging. Not bragging here, BUT, I owned and ran a foreign auto sales and service business for over ten years; so I had better know what I'm talking about, right?

Not saying to or not to use TSC's home brand - Travelers, BUT, Kioti does sell their own Kioti branded hydraulic oil, which I've used in my Sany SY-50U 5 metric ton excavator, AND will be using it in my new, aforementioned brand new 750 track loader and CK - 4020HST cab tractor.
