Kelly: I notice you are getting some advice on less expensive hydraulic oils. Be careful on that one especially with the 460-560 series. Those tractors are not very tolerant if specs are off even just a bit.

Just a bit on my experience. I used to buy my fuels and lubs from Esso as their dealer was a friend. For years I used Hydraul 50. One day I went to dealer for a pail of Hydraul 50. He said we have in a new improved version Hydraul 56. Turns out he was wrong 56 was an addition to the line, not a replacment. Hydraul 56 worked in Farmalls 130, SA, 300 and 1066. But it would not work in 560 and 656. The 56 oil is just a shade heavier viscosity and does not flow well enough through that filter system, thus starves pump for oil. That lesson was a two pump lesson,
