Dearborn Loader Fluid?

[duckrock]

What type of fluid do I use for my dearborn loader that I'm going to put on my 8N?

If it has a front mount type pump any good hydrolic fluid will work just fine.

Yes it is a front mount pump. Any idea how much it should take if it is empty?

All depends on the model that it is. I would go to Wal-Mart and buy a 5 gal. bucket of it and then go form there. It never hurts to have extra on hand if 5 gals. fills it.

Don't know about the Dearborn loader, but the manual for my Wagner loader states the only fluids they approved are: Texaco (AZ-R-O), Cities Service ( Peacemaker 150T), Stanoil (No.15), and International Harvester Touch Control Fluid. Don't know what these oils were or if any are still available, so I guess I'd would use any good hydraulic fluid as Old suggested.

You can get hydraulic fluid as others said, but 30 weight motor oil works just fine!
