Service jobs and parts

50-hour greasing

Chassis · every 50 hours

Eurol's guide lists the grease points as a 50-hour check. The list of points is not given in any source we could read, so use the diagram in your handbook.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Grease	1	Type: check your handbook	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Park level, lower implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
Wipe each nipple clean, then grease the points on the handbook's diagram: propshafts, suspension and steering joints.
Wipe off surplus grease so dirt does not stick.

Tools: Grease gun, Rags

Engine oil and filter change

Engine · every 500 hours or every 6 months

Eurol's guide, built from the maker's data, gives the engine oil every 500 hours or 6 months, with a first change at 100 hours and a level check every 10 hours. The filter goes on with the oil every time.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Engine oil	1	Grade and spec: check your handbook. ≈21 L	check your handbook
Engine oil filter	1	Parts dealers list this JCB number for the 4160, 4190, 4220 and the 4000 series with Sisu engines. Fit is by serial number, so confirm with a JCB dealer	335/A0713
Sump plug washer	1	Check your handbook	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Park on firm level ground, lower the linkage and any implement, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
Let it stand for a few minutes so the oil is warm but not scalding. Hot oil burns, so wear gloves.
Remove the sump plug and let the oil drain fully.
Clean around the filter head, unscrew the old filter and make sure its seal has come off with it.
Oil the new filter seal and fit it by hand as marked on the filter.
Refit the sump plug with a new washer and fill with about 21 L of the oil your handbook specifies, to the full mark.
Run the engine for a minute, check for leaks, stop it, wait a few minutes and recheck the dipstick.
Take the old oil to a proper disposal point.

Tools: Drain tray (30 L), Filter wrench, Socket for sump plug, Funnel, Rags, Gloves

Hub reduction oil change (four hubs)

Axles · every 500 hours or every 6 months

Eurol's guide gives the hub reductions, front and rear, every 500 hours or 6 months, with a first change at 100 hours and a level check every 100 hours.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Hub reduction oil	4	Grade and spec: check your handbook. ≈2.5 L per hub	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Park on firm level ground, lower implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
Turn each hub so the plug is at the bottom, drain it, then turn it to the level position.
Fill to the level plug, refit the plugs and wipe the hubs clean to spot leaks later.

Tools: Drain tray, Spanners or hex key for plugs, Oil pump or squeeze bottle

Front PTO gearbox oil change

Transmission · every 500 hours or every 6 months

Eurol's guide gives the front PTO gearbox oil every 500 hours or 6 months, with a level check every 100 hours. Only applies if a front PTO is fitted.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number

Step-by-step

Park on firm level ground, lower implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
Drain the gearbox, refit the plug and fill to the level plug or mark.
Check for leaks after the next run.

Tools: Drain tray, Spanners, Funnel

Engine fuel filter change

Fuel · every 1,000 hours or every year

A parts dealer's listing of JCB's 1000-hour kit for the 4220 shows an engine fuel filter in it, so 1,000 hours is used here. No handbook page was read, so check your handbook for the interval and for any pre-filter or water separator. Common-rail injectors are easily damaged by dirt and water.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Engine fuel filter	1	A reseller lists this JCB number for the Fastrac 4160, 4190, 4220, 8250, 8330 and 3230. Confirm by serial number	320/07416

Step-by-step

Stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels. Keep naked flames away.
Clean around the filter head so no dirt can get in.
Drain the filter into a container and remove it.
Fit the new filter with a lightly oiled seal.
Prime the fuel system as the handbook describes. Never crack open high-pressure pipes on a common-rail engine.
Start the engine, let it idle and check for leaks.

Tools: Container for fuel, Filter wrench, Rags, Gloves

Engine air filter elements

Engine · every 1,000 hours or every year

The same dealer listing of the 4220's 1000-hour kit shows a main (outer) air filter, so 1,000 hours or a year is used. Change it sooner in dusty work. Check your handbook for the safety element.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Outer (main) air filter element	1	No genuine number confirmed; check your handbook or ask a JCB dealer with your serial number	check your handbook
Inner (safety) air filter element	1	Check your handbook	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Stop the engine and take the key out. Never run it with the element out.
Open the air cleaner and take out the outer element. Leave the inner one in place unless you are changing it.

Fit the new element, check the seal sits evenly and close the housing.
Squeeze the dust valve clear.

Tools: Torch, Damp cloth

Front and rear differential oil change

Axles · every 1,000 hours or every year

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Differential oil	1	Grade and spec: check your handbook. Front ≈11 L, rear ≈17.5 L	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Park on firm level ground, lower implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.

Eurol's guide gives the hydraulic system oil every 2,000 hours or 24 months, with a level check every 10 hours. JCB's 1000-hour kit for the 4220 lists a hydraulic return filter; change the filter with the oil every time, and also at 1,000 hours if your handbook says so.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number
Hydraulic oil	1	Grade and spec: check your handbook. ≈130 L including the tank	check your handbook
Hydraulic return filter element	1	No genuine number confirmed; check your handbook or ask a JCB dealer with your serial number	check your handbook

Step-by-step

Park on firm level ground, lower the linkage and implements, stop the engine, take the key out and chock the wheels.
With the engine off, work the spool controls to let out trapped pressure. Oil at pressure can pierce skin.
Put a large container under the tank drain. Stand to one side when you open it.
Change the filter element with a new seal.
Refit the plug and fill with the oil your handbook specifies. The wrong oil can damage the system.
Start the engine, work the hydraulics through their full travel, lower everything, stop and recheck the level.

Tools: Drain tray (45 L), Spanners, Filter wrench, Pump or funnel, Gloves

Coolant change

Cooling · every 2,000 hours or every 2 years

Eurol's guide gives the cooling system every 2,000 hours or 24 months, with a level check every 10 hours.

Part	Qty	Notes	Part number

Step-by-step

Only work on a cold engine. Ease the cap off slowly to release pressure.
Drain the system and flush with clean water.
Refill with the correct mix, run to temperature, let it cool and top up.
