The Parker manual doesn't specify 5606, that's why I ask. The manual specif=
ies "ATF, OD18, or other clean hydraulic oil with a viscosity of 150-300 SU=
S at 38C", if another type is used "consult the factory"


The label on Phillips 5606 states that it is not to be used on natural rubb=
er. And the MIL-SPEC viscosity is outside of the Parker manual's recommenda=
tion.


Two votes for 5606 from the List so far.  Anyone have experience with anoth=
er fluid?

Joe,
While 5606 hydraulic oil is a bit pricey, you only need a little, and it=E2=
=80=99s not like engine oil that you need to change periodically=E2=80=A6al=
though they do recommend flushing/replacing every ten years=E2=80=A6 Why ta=
ke a chance with the seals, etc. It will cost you a LOT more time and aggra=
vation to repair/correct the damage caused by non-compatible fluids than ju=
st using the specified 5606.
=20
My two cents=E2=80=A6

Bob
