Cat 950H loader/forklift Hydraulic system

I hope this is the right forum.

I changed the hydraulic oil out on this oil at the CAT L&M guideline 2000 hours.

I recently put a Bypass filtration system on the HYD and ENG on this 950H.

I have been debating on adding bypass to the Transmisson.


Here is the last couple of samples on the HYD system. The oil has just under 500 hours of run time. I will probably just maint. the bypass filter and sample every 1000 hours. It will take a while to generate the hours.

If yall are interested in the UOA on the engine I can post it up as well.

Who did the oil analysis? How much extra was the particle size/count? I was told that was an expensive option on a UOA.

Amsoil just came out with several ISO grades of hydraulic oil. About $100 dealer cost/5 gallon bucket.

Wear check did the analysis. Not sure how much extra it is as I get the particle counts done on every sample I send off. I do know the cost per bottle of the above sample.

Amsoil seems to be to much trouble for me to deal with.
