I'm looking to see what kind of hydraulic oil i could use in my D6C. Yesterday was my first time running the dozer since I bought it. Later in the day the winch stopped working and the blade controls started running rough so I checked the fluid level and there was only 3" in the tank. The only thing I have available to use at the moment is traveler iso 32 and 46. Could I use either of those to get running today or not?

The hydro tank is also missing the dipstick and I don't see a sight glass. If I filled it roughly half way would that be a safe level to allow for fluid flow? 1000008377.jpg1000008379.jpg1000007327.jpg
