Diesel Engine Oil — Non-Emissions Certified and Certified Tier 1 and Stage I

TS1687-UN-18JUL07

Oil Viscosities for Air Temperature Ranges

Use oil viscosity based on the expected air temperature range during the period between oil changes.

John Deere Plus-50™ II oil is preferred.

John Deere Plus-50™ is also recommended.

Other oils may be used if they meet one or more of the following:

• John Deere Torq-Gard™
• API Service Category CJ-4
• API Service Category CI-4 PLUS
• API Service Category CI-4
• API Service Category CH-4
• API Service Category CG-4
• API Service Category CF-4
• ACEA Oil Sequence E9
• ACEA Oil Sequence E7
• ACEA Oil Sequence E6
• ACEA Oil Sequence E5
• ACEA Oil Sequence E4
• ACEA Oil Sequence E3
• ACEA Oil Sequence E2

If oils meeting API CG-4, API CF-4, or ACEA E2 are used, reduce the service interval by 50%.

Multi-viscosity diesel engine oils are preferred.

Diesel fuel quality and fuel sulfur content must comply with all existing emissions regulations for the area in which the engine operates.

If diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 5000 mg/kg (5000 ppm) is used, reduce the service interval by 50%.

DO NOT use diesel fuel with sulfur content greater than 10000 mg/kg (10000 ppm).
