Need answer about operating a loader

I have an AC WC with a loader. The tractor has been sitting for a while. I should have it running this weekend. It has a loader on it and I know nothing about operating a loader. The loader has about a 5 gal tank on it with hydraulic type line coming out of it and I need to know what type fluid goes in the tank. Someone told me it should have regular motor oil in it, but that is a lot of motor oil. Is that correct? Any additional information will also be appreciated.

Garry: Just a couple of thoughts on loader operation in general--first and foremost, carry any load as low as possible, and don't try to turn with the bucket up high--it's a recipe for an overturn. Second, the WC is a nice little tractor, but it's neither a heavyweight nor a powerhouse. You may want to look at rear weights of some sort to keep the rear end on the ground. Good luck with the loader; they're probably the single most useful implement available for a tractor if they're used correctly.

should have hydraulic fuid in it, but you can use SAE 30 weight NON DETERGENT oil,,,do not use regular oil as it will foam ....use non detergent...Jim

Use non detergent motor oil, it will produce more pressure than hyd. oil....generally recomended for the older tractors....you will need a little more oil than it takes to fill the system when fully extended..... Tractor Supply Store has it in 5 gal. buckets..... good luck..
