Default Hydraulic Fluid Questions

I've heard that I should use only Hy Tran fluid in my 1872. When I look further, I find Hy Tran is no longer available and has been superceded by Hy Tran Plus and Hy Tran Ultra. To confuse the matter even further, I'm reading about "MS-1209" standards; JI Case 1204-07/09 Specs.; ASTM DF1401 tests. etc.

Am I over-thinking this? I guess it boils down to: What hydraulic fluid should
I use and where to get it?

I just bought this tractor and it's my first. I want to drain and refill the hydraulic system. What's the best (easiest?) way to do it?


Thanks,
Russ
