Service jobs and parts
Engine oil and filter change
Engine · every 500 hours
Clean oil protects the bearings and turbo. Claas's Arion 600 brochures give a 500-hour engine oil change (TractorData agrees). The filter is changed with the oil every time. Grade and quantity: check your handbook.
| Part | Qty | Notes | Part number |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine oil | 1 | Grade and quantity: check your handbook | check your handbook |
| Engine oil filter (spin-on) | 1 | Sparex lists this Claas number for the Arion 620 to 650 (crosses to John Deere RE539279 / RE555072, Fleetguard LF16460). Sparex also lists Claas 6005028743 (John Deere RE504836) for some Arion 630 C and 650 builds, so check your serial number. | 0011457960 |
Step-by-step
- Warm the engine, then park on level ground, lower the linkage, loader and any implement to the ground, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
- Let it stand a few minutes. Hot oil burns, so wear gloves.
- Remove the sump plug and let the oil drain fully.
- Remove the filter, check the old seal came off, and wipe the filter head clean.
- Oil the new filter seal and fit it hand-tight as marked on the filter.
- Refit the plug and fill with the oil your handbook gives, to the full mark.
- Run the engine for a minute, check for leaks, stop it and recheck the level.

Transmission and hydraulic oil and filter change
Transmission · every 1,000 hours
Claas's brochure for the Arion 620 C to 640 C gives 1,000 hours for the transmission and hydraulic oil; its later Arion 500/600 brochure gives 1,500 hours, so check your handbook for your model year. Grade and quantity: check your handbook. The filters are always changed with the oil.

Fuel filters and water separator
Fuel · when needed
Clean fuel matters on a common-rail engine. We could not find Claas's interval for these filters, so check your handbook. Drain water from the separator whenever it shows.

Tools: Container for fuel, Filter wrench, Rags, Gloves
Engine air filter elements (outer and inner)
Engine · when needed
A blocked air filter cuts power and a split one lets dust wear the engine. We could not find Claas's interval, so check your handbook and change sooner in dusty work.
| Part | Qty | Notes | Part number |
|---|---|---|---|

Exhaust after-treatment (DPF, AdBlue filter and pump): dealer service
Exhaust · when needed
Claas says Stage V Arion 600 tractors (model year 2020 on) have EGR, a DPF and SCR with AdBlue. We could not find the service intervals or the Claas part numbers for the AdBlue filter or the DPF, so check your handbook or ask your Claas dealer.
| Part | Qty | Notes | Part number |
|---|---|---|---|
| AdBlue filter | 1 | No genuine number found for the Arion 600; check your handbook | check your handbook |
| Diesel particulate filter | 1 | Dealer service; check your handbook | check your handbook |
Step-by-step

- Never work near the exhaust or DPF until it has cooled; it runs very hot, especially after a regeneration.
Tools: Dealer service tool
Cab air filters: clean or replace
Cab · when needed
Dirty cab filters cut air flow and let dust into the cab. We could not find Claas's interval, so check your handbook and clean them more often in dusty work.

Known problems
Two Arion 630 generations
The name Arion 630 was used on the 2007–2012 tractors and on the later Hexashift/CMATIC tractors. Filter numbers differ between them, so give your serial number when ordering.
Engine oil filter number
Sparex lists two different Claas oil filters for Arion 630 builds (0011457960 and 6005028743). Check your serial number before ordering.
Stage V after-treatment
From model year 2020 the Arion 600 has a DPF and SCR with AdBlue. Use clean AdBlue only and let a Claas dealer handle DPF and AdBlue pump faults.

Repair guides
- Cleaning the cooling pack and checking the fan (Easy, 30–60 minutes): Temperature gauge climbs under load, overheating warning, air con weak, power reduced in hot dusty work, chaff matted on the grille.
- Stage V after-treatment and turbo warnings: owner checks (Specialist, 30 minutes of checks; dealer for faults): Engine warning or emissions fault codes, power reduced, AdBlue warning, turbo or boost codes, soot or smoke.
- Coolant going missing: EGR cooler and head gasket checks (Specialist, 30 minutes of checks; dealer for repair): Coolant level keeps dropping with no visible leak, steam from the exhaust, overheating, white smoke.
- Suspended front axle knocks or wobbles: greasing and wear checks (Moderate, 1 hour of checks; bushes about half a day): Knocking on full lock, wobbling front drive shafts, play in the steering ball joints, squeaks from the axle.
- Hexashift crunch from D to C range or 'can't shift' code (Specialist, Checks 30 minutes; repair about a week at a dealer): Crunch when changing from D to C range on the road, then a 'can't shift' error code.
- Rattle at switch-off or creep in neutral: damper plate and Belleville springs (Specialist, About a day for the damper (tractor split)): Rattle from the bell housing when the engine is switched off, later loss of drive and banging; or the tractor creeps with the shuttle in neutral.
- Odd error codes and failing headlights: CAN connectors and lamps (Easy, 1–2 hours): Strange error codes even though everything works, codes that come and go in wet weather, headlights going dim with a dull reflector.
- Order the right parts: John Deere and Claas serial number breaks (Easy, 30 minutes): Wrong filter arrives, parts list gives two numbers for one model, figures in the handbook do not match your tractor.
- Valve clearance adjustment and rocker cover (Arion 500 and 600, DPS engines) (Moderate, 2–3 hours): Ticking from the top of the engine, loss of power, or at the valve check interval.
- Belt squeal and fan problems: belt tensioner spring, viscous fan coupling and alternator bracket (Arion 500 and 600) (Moderate, 2–3 hours): Squealing or slipping belt, belt jumping off, flat battery from low alternator output, or a fan that stays locked or never engages and causes overheating.
- Thermostats, turbocharger, exhaust manifold and EGR cooler: removal notes and torques (Arion 500 and 600) (Specialist, 3–6 hours): Engine running too hot or too cold, coolant weeping from the thermostat cover, or an oil leak or noise from the turbocharger.
