@Bob7011
HLP 32 (eg. ADDINOL hydraulic oil HLP 32)
or
Mobil ATF 320 (eg. Traveller Premium Anti-Wear Hydraulic Fluid ISO 32)

Do never fill in the hydraulic oil from your transmission (SAE 80W-90 API GL4) - This can cause foaming in the steering in cold temperatures.

Also take a look here:

FAQ - List of fluids for Zetor 3340 to 6340

Here is my list of oils and filters that I have for servicing Zetor 3340. Diesel Motor Oil: (if it haves not the centrifuge!) Shell Rotella T4 15W-40 Diesel Motor Oil, 3 cyl. models uses: 2.5 Gallons (9 Liters), 4 cyl. models 3.3 Gallons (12,5 L) - Tractor Supply: 5gals Filter: Zetor 77010793...

Don't fill the reservoir to the very top, always leave a gap of about the length of your index finger.

That's what I thought too, but is great to get it confirmed, at the moment it's at the very bottom of the tank and the steering is all over the place, thanks to all for the info

Check your track rod ends too, for play.

Sound lad, mostly checking and tracing lights and bulbs, the last lad must have had xray vision, I think I've replaced most of them by now, bits of touch up on paint in the cab too, and of course replace the rear sliding glass that always gets broken on tractors

It's fierce the amount of glass broken out of Zetors over the years. I sell parts for zetors here, and glass is always in demand.
