What weight hydraulic oil in splitter .

[Stubby]

Cows knocked my splitter over , broke the carb and hyd oil leaked out . Fitted a new carb engine runs fine .. Ram wont move as not enough oil in tank .. I think it was 10wt ? Its 20ton and 6.5hp engine . What do you guys think ?

Yes iso 32 which is 10W but the hydraulic oils have an antifoaming agent compared with engine oils which have more other additives to deal with combustion products.

Quite a few splitters run with Dexron II easy to spot as its red , Dexron is a 10w oil .

Thanks everyone . ISO 32 .....10 wt it is then .

We recommend Hyd 22. But to be honest if you have 32 lying around that would do as well. 10w is a bit of a funny one because the classification is from the top end of an ISO 22 to the bottom end of an ISO 32.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks
