Hydraulic Oil Specifications for Kubota SVL75-2 Skid Steer Loaders
#1
The Kubota SVL75-2 is a robust compact track loader renowned for its performance and versatility. To maintain optimal functionality and longevity, it's crucial to use the correct hydraulic oil. This guide provides detailed information on the hydraulic oil requirements for the SVL75-2, including specifications, capacities, and recommended practices.
Hydraulic Oil Specifications
  • Type: ISO 46 anti-wear hydraulic fluid.
  • Viscosity Grade: AW46 (Anti-Wear 46).
  • Additive Package: Zinc-free, high-performance formulation designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern high-pressure, high-temperature hydraulic systems.
  • OEM Recommendation: Kubota Premium Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oil 46HD.
Using the specified oil ensures optimal performance and protection of the hydraulic components, including pumps, valves, and cylinders.
Hydraulic System Capacities
  • Hydraulic Tank Capacity: Approximately 35 liters (9.25 US gallons).
  • Total Hydraulic System Capacity: Approximately 60 liters (15.85 US gallons).
These capacities are essential for proper oil level maintenance and to ensure the hydraulic system operates efficiently.
Alternative Hydraulic Oil Options
While Kubota's Premium Anti-Wear Hydraulic Oil 46HD is recommended, alternative oils that meet the ISO 46 specification can be used. For instance, Mobil DTE 10 Excel 46 is a suitable alternative, offering similar performance characteristics. However, it's crucial to avoid using Universal Tractor Transmission Oils (UTTOs) like Kubota UDT or UDT2, as they do not meet the specific requirements for high-pressure hydraulic systems and may lead to suboptimal performance or damage.
Final Drive Oil Specifications
The final drives (drive motors) of the SVL75-2 require SAE 90 gear oil. It's essential to use the correct grade to ensure proper lubrication and prevent wear.
Maintenance Tips
  • Regular Oil Checks: Periodically check the hydraulic oil level and condition. Low or contaminated oil can lead to reduced performance and potential damage.
  • Filter Replacement: Replace hydraulic filters at the intervals specified in the operator's manual to maintain system cleanliness and efficiency.
  • Oil Changes: Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for oil change intervals, especially if the machine operates under heavy or demanding conditions.
Conclusion
Maintaining the correct hydraulic oil in your Kubota SVL75-2 is vital for its performance and longevity. By using the recommended ISO 46 anti-wear hydraulic fluid and SAE 90 gear oil for the final drives, you ensure the machine operates at its best. Always consult the operator's manual for specific maintenance schedules and oil change intervals.
