[AT] JD 730D Live PTO clutch oil

[Wayne Snelling]

I think the best oil is the multi purpose hyd fluid that we use in the 
hyds and trannys of all our tractors. The oil produce, if you get the 
better brands is so good for our older tractors they just thrive on it.
Re a SMTA, I have a friend that has one that the TA would not engage or 
if it did would not disengage to well. I told him to drain the oil, put 
in a good grade of hyd oil drive it  around for an hour or so (until he 
was tired of driving it without real work involved) and as he did so to 
continually engege/disengage the TA. At the end I told him to drain the 
oil, replace, and try it again if the TA was still tricky. Well, before 
the first session the TA began working just fine-really liked the hyd 
oil, and has been fine since. I had the same experience on one of mine 
and the same results.
I say all this to say use the newer oils that are made for trannys and 
hyd systems, they are so much better, in my opinion and that is worth 
maybe $ 0.02.
