HYDRAULIC/TRANSMISSION OIL

APPLICATIONS
■ Hy-Gard hydraulic/transmission oil provides the best performance and wear
protection for John Deere hydraulic and transmission systems.
■ Recommended for equipment with either common system reservoirs or separate
transmission and hydraulic systems, including those with wet brakes and wet clutches.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

®
HY-GARD
■ Formulated with friction modifiers to provide smooth clutch engagement and
high braking capacity with minimum chatter.
■ Formulated with a viscosity improver additive to ensure correct viscosity at all
temperatures; this additive is not found in many competitive oils, yet is critical
to equipment performance and component protection.
■ Hy-Gard oil has a viscosity between the ISO grades of 46 and 68 @ 40°C.
■ Hy-Gard oil exceeds JDM J20C specification. Some competitive oils may meet these
minimum J20 specificatons, but none meet the performance requirements placed on
Hy-Gard oil.
