Depends on what it calls for when it was made. An automatic transmission is one of the most demanding hydraulic systems ever invented. Wet clutches, automatic valves, slippage in a fluid coupling, and little or not maint in most cases. Most agricultural hydraulic fluids are not nearly as tough. Thats not to say it should or shouldnt be in there, just that if its made for it, the generally thicker hydraulic oils and fluids would dramatically slow down the system.

ATF is powerful stuff, thats what ran everything in my 550G Deere dozer, from the factory.
