HST Transmission Oil

[whitetiger]

are these tractors being filled by the dealer when they are uncrated?

The crated units are shipped with the Hydraulic oil already in them.

Good to hear. At least now I know my dealer didn't run it without hydraulic fluid in it like my mostly empty front axle.

Yeah, I was mainly wondering about condensation with air in the jug and temp swings. I can keep it in the house, I guess. Then it would actually pour if I had to add some on a below 0 day.

Thanks,

SUDT-2 has a -42C pour point, and being from Canadian prairies find the hst oil flows quite well when its much colder than 0F (18C) here. Adding at below 0F should be fine.

Thanks. We've had minus 30 F a few times lately, but -40 shouldn't be an issue.
