Oil & Fuel hydrolic fluid

[TC 30 Pilot]

Yo, all, just lookin to get some free advice on if I must use the oem fluids when servicing or can i use canada tire brand tractor fluid? Thanks to all who respond. I have a 2006 TC 30 Newholland FEL backhoe rig. I change the fluid too much and can save money if I don't get my stuff from the dealer....:thumbsup:

Does your tractor have a hydro trans? I was wondering the same thing about my 1520 HST and have read about some folks here having trouble with the HST in cold weather with non-OEM hydraulic fluid.

I plan to use the NH 134D stuff in mine and change it at the specified intervals.

Just remember that the Multi-G 134 that NH sells is essentially a multigrade oil (10W30). It has superior lubrication and cold weather viscosity properties compared to a cheaper grade of oil that might be a single weight and not rated for temperatures in excess of 200 degrees F. The oil that somebody in Texas, Louisiana, or Florida uses might never cause a problem in those geographical areas, but it might not perform satisfactorily in the northern tier states. Just know what you are getting and don't base your decision only on price. Make sure your oil is compatible with Multi-G 134 NH spec 410B.

Good info jinman, thanks! I use my tractor in NJ and New Hampshire, and will use New Holland's 134 for its cold weather capabilities.

I agree that less expensive/non-OEM hydraulic oil may work perfectly well for someone in a different climate.

The specification for the Tractor Hydraulic is NH 410B the older Ford
specification is no longer supported by New Holland, I did some calling around
yesterday.

Ambra Multi G 134
Mobilfluid 424
Citgo Tractor Hydraulic Fluid
Mystic JT-5 Tractor Hydraulic Fluid (my local F&F has it for ~$50 per 5 gallon pail.)

All meet NH 410B.

All meet NH 410B.

so I guess what I'm trying to say is at my local Canadian Tire when I look at the fluid is there a magic number I need to look for on the jug o fluid? There is a house brand "all in one" fluid that sounds like it might work but I don't no how to be sure...

...when I look at the fluid is there a magic number I need to look for on the jug o fluid?...

The specification for the Tractor Hydraulic is NH 410B.
