I just bought a New Holland ls 140 Skidsteer. It calls for 10w30 oil in engine, hydro, and final drive. Can i use 15w40 as i havent been able to find any diesel rated 10w30 and no dealer close by. Im in northern Ar where the winters are mild. The machine will be used for pushing snow if needed an is kept inside in a heated shop.

Which part of the blend concerns you?

I have no idea whats in it now and am wanting to change all the fluids and filters. I guess im a little nervous about the cleaning effect of the Rotella. Iknow it needs good fluids but i dont want to bust anything loose. Not all at once anyway.
Plus, WM may still have gallons of T5 on rollback for $13. Stock up.

I would be more nervous about using a fluid that is not spec'd for the machine
