Want to change hydraulic system from transmission fluid to hydraulic oil. Just empty the tank and replace with hydraulic oil? Or is there bleeding/ flush necessary? Thanks. Dale

If no hydraulic components have failed, I would clean tank and screen, and refill with good oil. If there has been a failure, flush every hose, clean tank, clean oil cooler, drain hydro, and any thing that you can get to. You cannot clean enough.                 MACK
