The short answer is yes, if it will do the job required. Why was 32 chosen in the first place? A thicker oil will not flow as easily, especially under cold start-up or cold weather conditions. It will generate more heat as it goes through valves etc. which stresses components and seals. It will increase the load on the pump, be harder to filter, and potentially reduce the lubricating capabilities overall. It can be done, and is done by some when operating conditions permit. It can also shorten the life of your system if it's not done carefully.

What weight Hydraulic oil for 773 bobcat skid steer?

The best thing to use is the Bobcat "orange" Hydraulic fluid. Actually you dont use hydraulic fluid in a skid loader you need to use hydrostatic transmission fluid. Drive relief pressures are in excess of 5000 psi, the fluid needs to drive the machine as well as make the lift arm raise up and down. If you cant get the Bobcat stuff than use 10w30 or better MOTOR OIL. Dumping ISO 46 or AW32 can be a very costly mistake.
