Alternative and Synthetic Lubricants
Conditions in certain geographical areas may require
lubricant recommendations different from those printed in
this manual.
Some John Deere brand coolants and lubricants may not
be available in your location.
Consult your John Deere dealer to obtain information and
recommendations.
Synthetic lubricants may be used if they meet the
performance requirements as shown in this manual.
The temperature limits and service intervals shown in
this manual apply to both conventional and synthetic
lubricants.
Re-refined base stock products may be used if the
finished lubricant meets the performance requirements.
Lubricant Storage
Your equipment can operate at top efficiency only when
clean lubricants are used.
Use clean containers to handle all lubricants.
Store lubricants and containers in an area protected from
dust, moisture, and other contamination. Store containers
on their side to avoid water and dirt accumulation.
Make certain that all containers are properly marked to
identify their contents.
Properly dispose of all old containers and any residual
lubricant they may contain.
Oil Filters
Filtration of oils is critically important for proper operation
and lubrication. John Deere brand oil filters have been
designed and produced specifically for John Deere
applications.
John Deere filters adhere to engineering specifications for
quality of the filter media, filter efficiency rating, strength
of the bond between the filter media and the element end
cap, fatigue life of the canister (if applicable), and pressure
capability of the filter seal. Non-John Deere branded oil
filters might not meet these key John Deere specifications.
Always change oil filters regularly as specified in this
manual.
