1802 What type of Hydraulic oil

[tallyho8]

What type of hydraulic oil do I use in my 1802. The oil in there now is red like automatic transmission fluid and I guess this same oil is for the transmission and rear end also. If it is automatic transmission oil, what type do I use. Type F, Mercon, etc.? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif My dependable Yanmar has never needed oil before but I have just cleared 60 trees that Hurricane Katrina left on my place and broke a hydraulic hose in the process.
