use the same oil that you put in the crankcase.

Check the tractor photos to your left. Oil is the same as in the engine, preferably heavier than 5W30. SAE 30 is a good weight to keep in it, or 15W40. When your tractor was built, the operators manual (you need to get one) specified 20 or 30.

I put 5W30 in the SH and had trouble with oil leaking out of the air intake. Switched to 30 wt and it went away

Bugman: Stay away from multigrade oils in the oil bath airfilter. The oil bath airfilter was designed before multigrade oils.

Multi grade oils work fine in the crankcase. Personally I use a 20 weight mineral lube.
