Mobile dte light, ok. Hhhmmm. I have bulk, name brand hydralic oil, for the farm, on hand. I will do some research to see what iso weight it is. And if it look like similar specs. Thanks for the info.
My bulk John Deere HyGaurd hydrlalic/transmision oil is a bit too thick at between iso 49 and 68 grade. But I might have a couple gallons of Deere low viscosity hyralic/transmission that is iso 32. Hhhmmm more reading.......
"Similar" isn't going to "necessarily" do you harm "suddenly". But the very Devil is in the details.
Mobil "named" DTE Light is meant to carry no debris, just drop it on the floor of anything resembling a "sump" and go back around, hopefully clean enough, under slosh, slash, dip, etc. for as long as made economic sense at the time.
Machine tools were, after all, MEANT to be pushed, and hard, to earn their cost, become "used up" worn. Few makers wanted a sale to be the last one ever made. They hoped to sell a newer and better machine in due course, and to every customer possible.
Mobil "numbered" DTE 24 expected a circulating pump and a filter. It WILL carry nano-fines, just not as aggressively as a detergent motor oil that has to deal with far higher rates of wear, PLUS contamination from combustion blowby of carbon and acid-forming byproducts. IC engine oils also have to deal with far wider swings of temperature, generally operate at higher pumped pressures and encounter different alloys.
"Details" of this sort have had a great deal of money and time applied, and all the way back to when DTE began its journey as "Gargoyle"-wotever and such.
Be happy it is only a few machine-tools you need to cover rather than an aircraft carrier and its "guests".
