Galen,
I used to have a Farmall 560 with the same hydraulic system. Mine would get water in the hydraulic fluid which of course turns to ice in 20 degree temps.

I like one of the posters suggestion to put in an additive that sucks out the moisture. I used to run this tractor everyday all winter to feed cows. It got to be such a pain, that I got rid of the tractor.
