Engine Oil and Filter Service Intervals — Interim Tier 4, Final Tier 4, Stage IIIB, and Stage IV
— OEM Applications
Recommended oil and filter service intervals are based
on a combination of oil pan capacity, type of engine oil
and filter used, and sulfur content of the diesel fuel.
Actual service intervals also depend on operation and
maintenance practices.
Use oil analysis to evaluate the condition of the oil and to
aid in selection of the proper oil and filter service interval.
Contact your John Deere dealer for more information on
engine oil analysis.
Change the oil and oil filter at least once every 12 months
even if the hours of operation are fewer than the otherwise
recommended service interval.
Diesel fuel sulfur content affects engine oil and filter
service intervals. Higher fuel sulfur levels reduce oil and
filter service intervals.
Use of diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 15 mg/kg
(15 ppm) is REQUIRED.
IMPORTANT: To avoid engine damage:
•
Reduce oil and filter service intervals by 50%
when using BioDiesel blends greater than B20.
Oil analysis may allow longer service interval.
•
Use only approved oil types.
