Service jobs and parts

Engine oil and filter change

Engine · every 300 hours

John Deere says replace the oil filter initially after 300 hours and then every 300 hours when ordinary oil and filter are used, or every 500 hours with John Deere Plus-50 oil and a genuine John Deere filter. The task uses 300 hours; extend to 500 only with Plus-50 and a genuine filter. The oil is always changed with its filter.
