N range wet brakes - what brake and axle oil?

Hello, I have a FG25N EF17DL with the option wet brake axle.

Can anyone advise what oil goes into the brake tank and what oil goes in the front diff casing?

I have a service manual for the wet brake set up, but every reference it makes to the oil it states "Use manufacturers specified oil" but does not state what that is.

Cheers,

Dan
