Hydraulic oil question

Hendrik ยท 2009-10-10 19:54

My Dingo and Kubota KX41-3v are due for service and I have to change the hydraulic juice. The Dingo requires HVI (high viscosity index) 68 grade oil and the Kub requires ISO68 grade oil, I am wondering if it is OK to use HVI 68 in the Kubota, far as I can tell the HVI is a hydraulic oil designed to be used in high temperature environments (no oil cooler on the dingo). If I can use HVI 68 in both machines it would make life a little easier in that I don't have to have 20,000 different drums of oil hanging around the place.
