Engine Oil And Filter Service Intervals; Oil Filters - Worldwide Construction And Forestry Division 380GLC Operator's Manual

Engine Oil and Filter Service Intervals

NOTE: The following engine oil and filter service interval
information is specified for engines that meet Interim
Tier 4 and Stage III B emission levels.
Recommended oil and filter service intervals are based
on a combination of oil pan capacity, type of engine oil
and filter used, and sulfur content of the diesel fuel.
Actual service intervals also depend on operation and
maintenance practices.
Use oil analysis to evaluate the condition of the oil and to
aid in selection of the proper oil and filter service interval.
Contact your John Deere dealer for more information on
engine oil analysis.
Change 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.
Diesel fuel sulfur content affects engine oil and filter
service intervals. Higher fuel sulfur levels reduce oil and
filter service intervals.
Use of diesel fuel with sulfur content less than 15 mg/kg
(15 ppm) is REQUIRED.
