Why Use Synthetics?

Plane and simple: They're BETTER than non-synthetic lubricants. Synthetic lubricants are man-made
products. They are chemically engineered, from the molecules up, and carefully formulated for specific
lubrication tasks.

AMSOIL synthetic lubricants outperform and outlast non-synthetic lubricants. They
lubricate and protect better and longer, far beyond the limits of non-synthetic products.
Discover how premium-quality AMSOIL Products SAVE MONEY, and how they help you
maximize your equipment life and your profits.

Steve Patterson, Copeland, KS
One of our irrigation engines runs all year
with no oil changing using AMSOIL and
Amsoil By-Pass Oil Filter. AMSOIL 75W-90
Synthetic Gear Lube is used in the gear
heads on a five-year change period. My
records show that I’m saving 58 cents
on the dollar on lube costs between the
cost of AMSOIL and petroleum lubes.

Francis and Rock Ormiston, Kismet, KS
We have been using AMSOIL totally since 1974.
We farm separately but do, on occasion,
interchange some machinery. Between us we
have four large 4-wheel drive John Deere tractors
from 200 to 400 HP. We use AMSOIL in all the
tractors and the combine, and the AMSOIL By-
Pass Filters, too. We change oil once a year in
early spring. We have not figured our real
savings by using AMSOIL, but for sure it’s a
strong 50 cents on the dollar over petroleum
oil, and saving a lot of labor on very little
downtime. There is no way we could afford to go
back to petroleum, even if it was given to us free.

Harold Isaac, Hooker, OK
I use AMSOIL Synthetic Engine Oil,
Synthetic Multipurpose Hydraulic Fluid and
the AMSOIL 80W-90 Synthetic Gear Lube in
my two Deere tractors, my 855 Steiger and
my N6 Allis combine. I also use the AMSOIL
By-Pass Oil Filters and change oil once a
year. Our farm uses nothing but AMSOIL
and we are happy with the results.
There is a large difference in
performance between petroleum oil and
AMSOIL, as well as a lot of money and
time saved.

Warren Bowker, Richfield, KS
I started using AMSOIL in 1975, and right off I
could see the difference, so I put it in everything on
the farm. I use AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Oil in
my six tractors – three Internationals and three
John Deeres – and in my Massey combine. WE
use AMSOIL 15W-40 in our two semis, a Mack
and a Detroit engine, along with the related
AMSOIL synthetic lubes in the transmissions and
differentials. AMSOIL 75W-90 Gear Lube is in the
irrigation gear heads and this has lowered the fluid
temperatures considerably. We use 100%
AMSOIL and plan on staying that way.

Wallace Dunn, Richfield, KS
I started using Amsoil in the spring of 1983.
Using AMSOIL SAE 30 Diesel Oil and
the AMSOIL By-Pass Oil Filter, we run 900
hours between oil changes on the 160 HP
Case and 700 hours in our 120 HP Deutz
Allis air-cooled. I use the AMSOIL 20W-50
Synthetic Oil in my Massey 510 combine on
a two-year oil change schedule. I am very
pleased I was introduced to AMSOIL
Products.

Anti-Friction:

AMSOIL lubricants are “super-
slippery.” They are extremely
effective in reducing friction and
drag between moving parts,
resulting in reduced wear, more
efficient operation and better fuel
economy.

Versatile For Most Applications:

In most cases, AMSOIL lubricants
eliminate the need for specialty
lubes. AMSOIL products meet or
exceed the performance
specifications of a wide variety of
farm machinery.

Long Lasting Service:

AMSOIL lubricants have a long service
life. Non-synthetic lubes can break down
from oxidation and heat. When that
happens, they sludge-up, from deposits
and have to be changed.

AMSOIL lubricants resist breakdown, so
they stay intact and run clean. This
resistance to heat and oxidation prolongs
the service life of AMSOIL synthetic
lubricants, significantly extending drain
intervals.

Low Temperature Fluidity/High
Temperature Stability:

AMSOIL lubricants resist the effects of
heat and cold far better than non-synthetic
lubricants. AMSOIL synthetics will make
the difference when starting an engine
that’s cold, and cooling an engine that’s
hot!

Rust and Corrosion Protection:

AMSOIL contains special additives to
prevent rust and corrosion – a vital
factor for equipment that sits idle or is
stored for part of the year.

AMSOIL Synthetic Greases are
recommended for all types of farm
applications. The Multi-Purpose,
Heavy-Duty and Water Resistant
Greases each provide outstanding
ant-wear protection by significantly
reducing friction and wear. Each
is highly resistant to water
washout and each imparts
excellent rust and corrosion
resistance.

AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Grease is
excellent for high-temperature,
high-speed and high-load
applications, where bearings,
suspension points and other
precision clearances are subject
to extreme pressure. AMSOIL
Water Resistant Grease is ideal for
applications where exceptional
resistance to water washout is a
must.

Each is compatible with seals and
designed to provide long-lasting
performance and protection for
your farm and other equipment.

Heavy-Duty Synthetic
Grease:

Heavy-Duty Synthetic Grease is a
molly fortified, high load-bearing,
lithium complex, extreme pressure
grease, formulated to provide
exceptional lubrication and antiwear
protection in heavy-duty applications.

Available in 16-oz. cans, 14-oz
cartridges, 35-lb lugs, 120-lb kegs and
400-lb drums.

Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease:

Multi-Purpose Grease is a superior
lithium complex grease that’s
especially suited for use with all types
of bearings (high or low speed). Multi
Purpose Grease is appropriate to any
application where high-quality grease
is recommended.

AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Grease is
also available in a convenient
aerosol spray can that allows easy
transportation and application. Spray
Grease also allows precise areas,

and its distinctive dye lets you see
exactly where it’s bee applied.

AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Grease is
available in 3-oz cartridges, 16-oz
cans, 14-oz cartridges, 35-lb lugs,
120-lb kegs and 400-lb drums.

AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Spray
Grease is available in 10 ½ fl oz
spray cans.

AMSOIL Water Resistant
Grease:

Water Resistant Grease is ideal for
application in wheel bearings,
chassis and machinery where
contact with water is common. It
offers the thermal and oxidative
stability, high viscosity index,
extreme temperature performance
and outstanding protection you
expect in AMSOIL Greases, plus
water washout resistance superior
to any grease you’ve used.

AMSOIL Flows in the Cold

Non-synthetic oils thicken rapidly as
the temperature drops. In cold
weather, this causes difficult starting
as the engine fights to turn over
against the semi-solid lubricant. And
even if the engine starts, the cold thick
oil will not circulate immediately, which
means some parts of your engine can
run for up to five minutes without any
lubrication at all!

AMSOIL Takes the Heat

A hard-working engine generates
tremendous heat, a serious problem
for non-synthetic lubricants. Oil
thickening and oil consumption occur
when high temperatures evaporate the
lighter, more volatile portions of
petroleum based oil. Heat also causes
oxidation, forming gummy sludges and
varnishes.

AMSOIL is heat-stable! AMSOIL
resists volatile evaporation and
thickening at high temperatures. It
resists oxidation and inhibits the
formation of engine deposits. Low
volatility means reduced oil
consumption. Reduced thickening
promotes better fuel economy
(because thick oil causes internal
engine resistance) and better engine
protection, especially during cold start-
ups when thick oil doesn’t circulate
properly. Low volatility means reduced
oil consumption.

AMSOIL actually cools hot engines
and gear boxes took, reducing stress
on components and extending
equipment
life.

Availability:
AMSOIL synthetic motor oils are
available in quart, gallon and 2 ½-
gallon containers, and 30- and 50-
gallon drums.

Performance:
AMSOIL Synthetic 15W-40 Heavy Duty
Diesel and Marine Oil, Synthetic Blend
15W-40 Diesel Oil and Series 3000
Synthetic 5W-30 heavy Duty Duty
Diesel Oil are fuel efficient, super-
heavy-duty, multi-viscosity lubricants
for use in light and heavy-duty diesel
and gasoline engines. Their synthetic
base stocks and proven long-life
additives assure performance,
economy, and outstanding protection
over extended drain intervals.

Because they meet and exceed the
lubrication demands of virtually every
light and heavy-duty diesel and
gasoline engine, farmers with a variety
of vehicles need only stock one of
these “all-engine” oils for their vehicles
and equipment.

Protection & Prevention:
Anti-Rust: AMSOIL 15W-40 Motor Oils
contain special rust and corrosion
inhibitors to protect against internal

rust, and an important feature for
equipment stored for long periods,
such as farm tractors.

Anti-Deposits: AMSOIL 15W-40 Motor
Oils inhibit deposit build-up. They
deliver tough multi- visocity
performance to keep engines running
clean and at peak efficiency.

Most hydraulic/transmission failures are
caused by contamination or breakdown
of he hydraulic fluid. Excess heat is a
major enemy of hydraulic/transmission
fluids. Non-synthetic hydraulic fluids are
likely to oxidize when exposed to the
extreme environment of tractor
transmissions and hydraulic systems.
Oxidation leads to the formation of acids,
varnish and sludge deposits. This can
thicken oil, reduce lubricating abilities,
accelerate wear, damage hoses and lead to
further overheating and catastrophic
component failures.

AMSOIL Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid (ATH)
is made up of thermally stable and
chemically resistant synthetic base stocks
and premium quality additives.

AMSOIL ATH is highly resistant to heat
breakdown and chemical changes. It is
a better “carrier” for heat transfer, so
equipment runs 20 percent to 50
percent cooler. All of this means more
efficient and economical operation,
with less maintenance and profit-
stealing downtime.

The durability of AMSOIL ATH allows
drain intervals two to three times
longer than those of conventional
fluids. This saves time, effort and
money because you buy fluid less
often. Cooler operation with AMSOIL
ATH increases fuel economy and
equipment life, especially for hoses,
which are susceptible to heat damage.

AMSOIL ATH also provides superior
protection against rust and corrosion,
a critical form of protection during
equipment storage.

AMSOIL Multi-purpose Synthetic
Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid is
specifically designed for outstanding
performance in modern farm tractors
and hydrostatic drive machinery.
Whether it is used in the transmission,
final drive or in the hydraulic system,
AMSOIL ATH delivers superior

protection and service: better
lubrication for less wear, more positive
control and reliability; longer service life
for cost savings (in replacement fluid
and time spent away from the field);
vastly superior cold and hot
temperature performance for easy cold
weather start-ups, faster warm-ups and
overall cooler operation.

AMSOIL Multi-Purpose Synthetic
Hydraulic/Transmission Fluid is
available in quarts, 5-gallon pails
and 30- and 55-gallon drums.

fuel, from commuters, farmers and truck drivers, it's time to do
something. That something is using AMSOIL and the ULTRA
FINE LESS THAN 1-MICRON BYPASS SYSTEM and AMSOIL
MOTOR OIL, TRANSMISSION FLUID, FILTERS AND OTHER
PRODUCTS. You will Virtually eliminate wear, get better fuel
mileage, cut down time, reduce the amount of oil you use and
save your equipment.

One of my farmer friends told me once that he couldn't afford to
take a chance using AMSOIL. Even with no basis for his beliefs
he didn't trust anything but what he had sued for the past 20
years. I told him he couldn't take the chance not using
AMSOIL.

Oil companies, car companies, refineries, and those
fat cat foreign oil barons in the middle east and
south America love you and me using as much oil as
we can. They are making trillions of dollars in profit
off of you and me. And it is at our expense. Car
companies love to see us wear out our cars, trucks
and farm equipment fast so they can sell us new
stuff.

Go back and look at the testimonials by other
farmers. Lest all do our part to reduce our
dependency on foreign oil and at the same time save
MONEY, TIME, AND OUR EQUPMENT! It couldn't get
any better, I can get you AMSOIL for wholesale
