    Question Which Hydraulic Oil do I use?????

    To All (Newbie) no machine manual! I had to disconnect the hydraulic lines to remove my spindle motor and I'm trying to bleed the line, but out of hydraulic oil. What type do I need to use or will any hydraulic oil do??

    Thanks for your assistance

    I have been told in the past that it is not so much what you use but the viscosity should match the application/temp range, there are Hydraulic supply reps. in most large towns, maybe look thorough the phone book for a local one to advise you over the phone.
