Answers for farmers comparing lubricants & additives suppliers and dealers on FarmPages.
Many tractors share a common transmission and hydraulic reservoir that uses a universal tractor fluid, but specifications differ between manufacturers and model years. Use a fluid that meets the specification listed in each operator's manual, since the wrong fluid can affect wet brakes, clutches and hydraulic performance. Listed lubricant suppliers can match products to your equipment specs.
Cold-flow improvers and anti-gel additives help when fuel is not already winter-blended, such as summer fuel stored into fall or equipment working in extreme cold. Most fuel distributors on the Prairies supply seasonally blended diesel, so check what you are getting first. Use the dose rate on the label and treat fuel before it gets cold. Listed suppliers can recommend products.
Buying in drums or totes usually lowers the cost per litre for oils and fluids you use in volume, but only if you can store them clean, dry and labelled with dedicated dispensing equipment. Contamination from dirty containers is a common cause of hydraulic and engine wear. Ask listed suppliers about bulk pricing, delivery and dispensing systems.
