What oil goes in the power director on a D-15? I'm 150 miles from it and the books and can't remember which oil I need. Thanks

Wendell,

I switched to Universal Hyd Fluid some years back and have seen no ill effects; run this in one D15, three D15II, a D17IV, a D19D and my 190XTIII. I use a D15II brush cutting heavy pastures consistantly and she get's worked hard, including plenty of cutting at 100F+ ambient during last summer here in North Texas.

Just picked up my first bucket of same rated for "older tractotrs" that has hit the market. Reportedly has "additional additives" and appears to be slightly thicker than the standard stuff on the market. Just make sure the label shows it meets the A-C 821 standards rating.
