Does anyone know of any type of anti-icer for hydrolic/transmision fluid/oil? It was 14 degrees here this morning and I fired the tractor up to push some brush. The 3ph was slow to raise and I
thought it was just cold, I drove into the woods and lowered the blade and it would not raise again, I sort of thought that there was ice in the control valve so I parked the tractor into the sun and did some chain saw work, went back in about an hour and started up again and the 3ph worked perfect. The drift is, I think I have a slight bit of moisture in the fluid from condensation, and wondered if someone made and anti-icer like you use in diesel fuel?? jim

Jim, Have used Sea Foam for this in older tractors, have not had a problem with the new one. Buy it at any auto or farm store. Also good for deisel fuel deice and gel situations. gary
