3. Safety Information
Before performing any maintenance, ensure the equipment is turned off, cooled down, and any moving parts are secured. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and eye protection. Engine oil can be hot and cause burns. Dispose of used oil and filters responsibly according to local regulations.
4. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps to replace your engine oil filter:
- Preparation: Park the equipment on a level surface. Allow the engine to cool down. Gather necessary tools: a wrench for the drain plug, an oil filter wrench, a drain pan, new engine oil, and the new John Deere M801002 oil filter.
- Drain Old Oil: Place the drain pan under the engine's oil drain plug. Remove the drain plug and allow all the old engine oil to drain completely. Once drained, reinstall and tighten the drain plug.
- Remove Old Filter: Position the drain pan under the old oil filter. Use an oil filter wrench to loosen and remove the old filter. Be prepared for some oil to spill from the filter.
- Prepare New Filter: Apply a thin film of clean engine oil to the rubber gasket of the new John Deere M801002 oil filter. This ensures a proper seal and prevents damage to the gasket during installation.
- Install New Filter: Thread the new filter onto the engine by hand. Once the gasket makes contact with the engine block, tighten the filter an additional 1/2 to 3/4 turn. Do not overtighten.
- Refill Engine Oil: Consult your equipment's service manual for the correct type and amount of engine oil. Carefully add the specified amount of new oil through the oil fill cap.
- Check for Leaks: Start the engine and let it run for a few minutes. Turn off the engine and check the oil level using the dipstick. Add more oil if necessary. Inspect around the new filter and drain plug for any signs of oil leaks.

5. Operation (Post-Installation)
After installing the new oil filter and refilling the engine oil, ensure the oil level is correct. Run the engine briefly and then recheck the oil level. The engine is now ready for normal operation. The oil filter will continuously clean the engine oil during use.
6. Maintenance
The M801002 oil filter is a maintenance item. Refer to your John Deere equipment's owner's manual for recommended oil and filter change intervals. Adhering to these intervals is critical for engine longevity and performance. Regularly check for any signs of oil leaks around the filter and drain plug.
7. Troubleshooting
- Oil Leak After Installation: If an oil leak occurs around the filter, ensure the filter was tightened correctly (1/2 to 3/4 turn after gasket contact) and that the old gasket was removed completely before installing the new filter. Check for any damage to the new filter's gasket.
- Low Oil Pressure Warning: If a low oil pressure warning light illuminates after an oil change, immediately shut off the engine. Check the oil level and ensure the filter is properly installed and not clogged. Consult a qualified technician if the issue persists.
