Northeast Missouri
Be aware that not every hydraulic oil plays well together. I worked in a John Deere dealership years ago and installed new Hy-Gard to finish the job. A week later the owner complained about brake noise so the tractor was brought back in. He had blown a hydraulic hose and topped off with either Shaeffer or Cen-Pe-Co oil ( can't remember). When inspected the brake pads were totally gone with nothing but the rivets left. Deere said they found compatibility issues with some oils and not others. Either by itself was ok but not together. Ask around about compatibility before you change. Might be an expensive lesson.
