Hydraulic Fluid - Front end loader

[Killah_keith]

I have a Massey Ferguson 20c with a MF32 8100 Front end loader. I think the tractor is around 1974 +/-.

I just recently became the owner. The owner gave me what was left over of the oil he was using. (See picture)

i do not think this is what's recommended...? But he owned it for 7 years. Besides the leaks. The hydraulics operate fine.

Should I keep using the same fluid? Or swap to the recommended "Agco Parts Hydraulic Oil 46" which is what pops up when I search it.

Fill location picture included.

That should be fine as your loader hydraulic system is a closed system as it has its own, reservoir, pump, and filter, it does not use the oil/fluid used internally in the tractor itself.
