Massey Harris 44 hydraulics

Acquired Massey Harris 44, operators manual on the way. Does hydraulic system use same oil as crankcase oil. As I purchased the tractor, there is no oil in reservoir in front of the radiator and hydraulic cylinder under the seat is not operative. Any suggestion would help. It is the 4 cylinder Continental engine.
 
You can run 30W non detergent or any hydraulic fluid. I run JD HyGaurd in all of mine so they can interchange on equipment.

You will probably have an inch of sludge in the bottom of the hydraulic reservoir. I cleaned mine out and installed a return filter behind the grille.
