All fantastically detailed information.

I was told the machine was not used much at all before it was left to sit.

The engine oil is clean, like new. I was going to leave it, run it for a few hours, then do the oil and filter.


The hydraulic tank is full, the oil is clean. I was going to try and avoid opening the hydraulics in anyway., most of what I was planning to do I should get away with hose flex.


The hydro units, I wanted to change the oil and filters as a precaution. The filters have external rust, I would hate for one to blow to bits once pressured up. The oil level in the remote tank is below the outlets to the hoses to the units. I would suspect leaking hose fittings.
I wanted to get some alloy cleaner with fluoric acid, and clean the housings up, drain the oil, swap the filters and fill it all up with fresh stuff.


Ive got a number here for a guy at Eaton. I will get to calling him one day soon.

I was thinking that the ISO 100 hydraulic could be the go.
