McCormick CT28 hydraulic fluid

[gonzo2721]

I have a CT28 made by LS, that I need to change fluid. The manual calls for LG Caltex RPM tractor hydraulic fluid SAE 80w. I'm unable to locate this particular brand. Looking at other brands, the only one that says anything about SAE 80w is mobilfluid 424, which I would have to order. Is this a good substitute? Is there another brand that is equivalent? Thanks.

I use Moblifluid 424 in my kubota and never had any problems with it......

I have been using Mobilfluid 424 in my Branson for the last couple years. It's spec is very similar to Chevron THF1000 which is what Branson recommends, but is hard to find for me.

I got the 424 on Amazon.
