My '61 3010 has water in the hydraulic fluid, based on the 'milky' color. I've purchased a new filter and 10 gallons of replacement fluid, enough for a single change. I'll change it, and then probablh
change it for a second time. But, it makes me wonder....
1. How does the fluid get water in it? Condensation in the reservoir? ??
2. What do I do with 20 gallons of water-contaminated hydraulic fluid? The county road & bridge shop takes old motor oil to burn in the winter. But, they won't take it if it has water in it. Dang, I
hate to think I have to separate it out.
What do you guys do with old hydraulic fluid?
Thanks,
