What kind of hydraulic fluid does the Earthquake 27 Ton log splitter use?
Donald
from Mississippi
May 13, 2011
Answer
The hydraulic reservoir should be filled with an SAE 30
hydraulic oil (if temperature will be above 50º Fahrenheit
when operating unit) and SAE 20 hydraulic oil (if
temperature will be between 32º Fahrenheit and 50º
Fahrenheit). If hydraulic oil is difficult to obtain, automatic
transmission fluid can be substituted and should
be used instead of hydraulic oil when temperatures
are below 32º Fahrenheit. DO NOT mix transmission
fluid with hydraulic oil. Use only clean oil and take
care to prevent dirt from entering the hydraulic reservoir
