When loader mounting frames are installed on tractor, the access to the engine oil filter becomes limited and some conventional filter wrenches may not fit in the opening or may experience interference while turning the filter. A jaws type filter wrench is recommended for this application.

Removal (With Wrench):

  1. Hook up filter wrench to an extension bar and ratchet.
  2. Place wrench on filter (wrench base should be in contact with filter).
  3. Turn the ratchet to grab and loosen the filter.

Installation (Without Wrench):

  1. Apply a layer of clean engine oil on new filter seal.
  2. Install the filter and hand-tighten plus 1/2 turn.

Installation (With Wrench Capable for Tightening):

  1. Apply a layer of clean engine oil on new filter seal.
  2. Install filter and hand-tighten until filter seal contacts filter base.
  3. Hook up the filter wrench to ratchet with extension bar.
  4. Place the wrench on the filter and rotate the wrench carefully until the jaws grab the filter, from this point, tighten 1/2 turn.

    IMPORTANT: Be careful while tightening the filter using a wrench. DO NOT tighten the filter more than 1/2 — 3/4 turn after the filter packing contacts the filter base to avoid filter damages.
