Extended Drain Intervals — Only with Plus-50™ II

Service intervals:
Oil and filter service intervals in John Deere diesel engines are based on a combination of factors, including:
1. The type of engine oil and filter in the application.
2. The sulfur content of the diesel fuel.
3. The volume of oil in the system.
4. The power output of the engine.

We recommend changing 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.

Operators using John Deere Tier 4 emission-certified and older diesel engines may now utilize 500-hour oil and filter service
intervals beyond what is published in the Operator’s Manual when all of the following conditions are met:
1. John Deere Plus-50 II and John Deere filters are used.
2. Use of Ultra Low Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel with a sulfur
content less than 0.0015% (15 mg/kg or 15 ppm) is required.
3. The original volume oil pan (or larger) that was delivered with the engine is still in use and the oil level is maintained at normal volumes through the service interval.(a)

Operators must follow the engine-oil and filter service interval recommendations in the Operator’s Manual.
