Ford 712 loader/backhoe hyd fluid? '62 FSM

Hello,
I have a Ford 712 Loader that I just got running on a 1962 Fordson Super Major, also has a 713 backhoe. The unit runs great and I am using it to load dirt into my dump truck from the quarry. The problem is that after about the 3rd load the hydraulic fluid gets hot and the loader will only go about 1/2 way up, the backhoe does the same thing after a short while of digging. I am using AW32 fluid from the parts store, Should I be using the 2c-134d fluid? 303? R&O? Anybody have an idea on the correct fluid or a manual that tells the correct fluid type for this 712/713 setup? All new Wix filters and flow is great. When I get done with it I am going to sell it. Any idea what it's worth? Thanks Very Much.
