My understanding is that hydro tractors take a different hydraulic fluid then non-hydro tractors. If that is the case, can one share hydraulically operated equipment between hydro tractors and non-hydro tractors without damaging either tractor?

Case-IH Hy-Tran is the recommended fluid for the hydraulic system in just about every IH tractor, Hydro or not. Any good name-brand hydraulic fluid will work fine. It is true that some brands of hydraulic fluid are not compatible with other brands, as the additives can have negative reactions with each other. The best policy is to pick a good name-brand fluid, drain all of your tractors and fill them all with that brand, and then stick to that brand. Regular hyd. oil changes will go a long ways in making your Hydro last. Condensation will build up in the oil over time, and water is the hydro"s worst enemy next to dirt. Yearly oil changes are best for working tractors.

I read a recent report about those yellow bucket hydraulic oils you see at coops and places. Cennex I believe had an independent lab do some analysis on 8 different kinds of yellow bucket oils. They were missing the majority of the additives that Hy-Tran and other oems have in them. It also said the oil turned to sludge faster, showed more gear wear and did not stand up.
