IH HYTRAN !!! Nothing else!

 

Is that case branded stuff? never heard of it. How often do you change the oil in the Brunett?

Yes Case IH, not cheap, so police your leaks!

 

Will have to look up destructions for H/O interval... 500 hours perhaps... 'ang on.

The next one up from Hytran which Case use in their newer kit is designed for a 600 hour change interval. Can't remember what is was called but it was about £60 for 20L

Is any tractor transmission/ hydraulic oil suitable ie. UTTO or Multi G? Or does it have to be Hy Tran?

I can only speak for the 578; MUST be hytran only! This is paramount. Utto et al is a total no-no.

I've found manual for Osa 250 along with filter that goes under the cab and hydraulic oil one also.

[Dave177]

managed to have a look in the manual this morning and it looks like standard hydraulic oil can be used in the main tank to run the transmission, crane etc with Hy tran being specified for the bogies, diffs etc.

Ah now! From memory, that was a misprint! Seriously! It would be the other way round if it was 1/2 correct. Some serious clarification on this - I suggest you call Tommy Groat at FC Workshops; not a lot the man doesn't know about Bruun System machines. Likely your machine is ex-FC anyway...

 

FTR my manual states EP80/90 for the bogies - makes sense since it's gear oil for gears! Likewise for the rear diff - GL5 or Hypoid...

 

The transmission and crane share the fluid and Hytran has the highest H2O handling which is why I think IH and cranab call for it...

 

Hytran for the front diff as it's in with the skid unit trans anyway...

Knew I had this; IH issued a service bulletin to clarify of which I have a copy somewhere...

 

need to check if 578 and 678 are that different...

Newish footage on YouTube of an Osa 250 which has had full workshop respray, hopefully it had good service/refurb also

I think the hyd oil tank may be smaller than was on mine, might be wrong though. Kind of wish I hadn't sold mine to be honest.
