My bobcat manual has a typo in it and calls for using 10w30 motor oil in the hydraulic system, then concludes the directions by saying to add two quarts of ATF if the filter was changed to top off the system. I have been told that ATF is a very refined hydraulic fluid, yet the viscositity (sp) of the ATF seems so much less than the regular hydraulic oil, does anyone have an opinion one way or the other regarding replacing hydraulic oil with ATF???Will ATF still provide lubrication to the drive system, as my drive system is bathed in the same oil used for the hydraulic system?? Thanks, My search on this subject did not answer my concerns.....
