If the recommended engine oils, John Deere PLUS-50 or ACEA-E7, ACEA E6, ACEA E5 or ACEA E4, are not used, the oil and filter
change interval is reduced (see DIESEL ENGINE OIL AND FILTER INTERVALS chart). If diesel fuel with a sulfur content greater than 0.05%
is used, the oil and filter change interval is also reduced. 6-Cylinder engines with oil pan option codes 1907, 1908, and 1909 require the oil to
be changed at every 250 hours or less regardless of oil specification used.

and the coolant is tested annually AND additives are replenished as needed by adding a supplemental coolant additive, the flushing interval
may be extended to 5000 hours or 60 months, whichever occurs first.
