The 10W isn't anything to worry about. It means that your 10W-40 oil will have the viscosity of 40 weight oil when it is warm out and will not get so thick when it gets cold, more like what a 10 weight oil would be like in cold weather. Your old tractor might have called for straight 40 weight because 10W-40 hadn't been invented yet when it was new. I run it in my tractors year around.
