JD 3038e compact tractor hydraulic fluid

[Texasmark]

was reading the other day and the reason for not mixing oils is that the base stocks may be different and all trans-hydraulic don't use the same type of base oils. Google the subject and read up on it then find out what type base oils you are dealing with and your question is answered.......then think about maintenance schedules. Grin!

Thanks, I did read about mixing oils, hence my original concern, but then read where you can mix j20d and j20c, but, my concern was, one brand is champion, and I assume the other is Hygard. I'm going to assume everything is fine at this point. And I will change the filter, and possibly the oil and filter when I get around 200 hours in it. Oh, and the screens, that was a good reminder.
Thanks to all the helpful replies.
