Well it depends on hydro or gear.
Hydro transmissions require a trans/hydraulic fluid. The most highly recommended is Cub Cadet or Case IH Hy-Tran, but there's plenty of off-brand alternatives that'll do the job just fine.
Gear drive transmissions are a lot less specific, as all the fluid needs to do is keep the gears and bearings lubricated. You CAN use Hy-Tran or equal trans/hydraulic fluid, but realistically most types of gear oils will work without trouble, as long as it sticks to the gears.
