What Kind of oil does the steering unit use?
The JPS Unit uses the same regular hydraulic oil that you use in your loader. The steering kit comes with a filter to make sure that the steering control unit gets only clean oil. In addition, I recommend a friction reducing additive called “Power UP”. Power Up lowers generated heat and reduces mechanical wear because of the friction-reducing abilities it possesses. One thing I want to mention is that I recommend Power Up because I am adamantly sold on the product. I do not receive any advertising fees from Power Up. I have used Power Up in all of my equipment and vehicles over the years and have experienced the savings that it provides me in better gas mileage and lower maintenance costs. If you would like to know more of the benefits of Power Up, contact me at sales@jacksonpowersteering.com.
