Quick Tip

Use only ISO 15 mineral oil in the brake system of any Loadall or Backhoe. Regular dot three brake fluid will destroy the seals and produce costly repairs.

    We have an 4CX backhoe and our operator put some dot 3 brake fluid on it.
    Any recomendation about how to solve this before the seals became damaged?
