on the prowl for some bulk excavater hydraulic oil, I have all brands, the cat guy wants me to run this cat advance 10 6000hr which is the cheapest I have found. I have always used the clear Hitachi 46 4000hr. what are you guys using for your fleet? thanks

    Interesting they are calling an ISO42 10wt, as it's actually 20wt. 10wt is around ISO30. I wouldn't run anything that thick unless it's never shut off or stored in a heated building. Most things use ISO15, 22 or 32 here. Most shops I supply use Rando HDZ.
