Make sure it is compatible to wet clutch transmissions. About fifteen years ago some of the TSC hydraulic oil stated it was equivalent to JD 303/Hy-guard oil. In the real fine print it stated it was not for wet clutches. We got three or four tractors in that the clutch facings had de-laminated from the clutch disks.
