Ford 861 power steering

magpiene · Jun 1, 2013

I just recently purchased this tractor, It has been setting for 12 years. No manual for it yet. My question is this, what oil does the power steering require? Any help is appreciated, THANKS IN ADVANCE.

You can use New Holland 134 universal hydraulic fluid or equivalent in the power steering as well as in the transmission, hydraulics and differential. (The original spec was to use 90 weight gear oil in the transmission and differential, but using 134 in these reservoirs will prevent contamination of the hydraulic system with gear oil and improves shifting in low temperatures.)

I use regular, clear power steering fluid you can get at any auto supply center in my 861. Have for years with no problems.
