Allis WD45 Hydraulic Issues

I used my WD45 Remote Hydraulics to pick up our grain drill and set it down to work on it
for spring planting. The hydraulics worked as they should. I happened to change my
Hydraulic oil on the WD45 as it was sitting there. I used the ISO68(20w) the WD45 manual
called for. The Dipstick is reading the new hydraulic level at the Full mark. When I
started the WD45 to move the tractor and drill it would not lift/extend the remote ram on
the Drill. I can hear the pump but there is no pressure in the hose. The pins that hold
the cylinder on the drill are not under pressure with the hydraulic hand lever in the down
or up position.
When I drained the Hydraulic reservoir the fluid that drained out was red almost like ATF.
Also, before the change the pump always made a bit of a chatter sound when running the
remote ram to extend. Now it is whisper quiet. The two rams for the lower link have
always been capped off and no hoses since I bought the tractor a year ago.
