    Hydrostatic drive
    By  RAY,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Virginia  on  November 23, 2024
    Had a problem with customers hydraulic mower. Found excessive water/moisture in drive motors on a hunch I thought what about an oil change in non-serviceable drives. Called AMS oil techs and asked if SAE 10-50 could replace SAE 10. Well a mix was added. Still is working fine for a complete season.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.

    Great hydrostatic fluid
    By  MG,  a  Verified Buyer  from  Pennsylvania   on  October 24, 2024
    I use this in Gravely and Toro zero turn pumps and transmissions and it's truly phenomenal. Lever controls are very responsive in fwd and rev compared to Mobil1 15W40 or other equivalent oil specified to be used in hydrostatic equipment. Also the pumps and transmissions have significantly less noise throughout operation. Even in >90°F temperatures.
    Bottom Line
    Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
