John Deere Plus-50 II

Product Description

John Deere Plus-50 II

Plus-50 II exceeds the requirements of the American Petroleum Institute (API) Service Category CK-4 for use in high-speed four-stroke diesel engines and is backward compatible to meet previous API engine oil classifications.

Plus-50 II premium engine oil has been designed to provide advanced lubricant performance in modern low-emission engines and to meet the requirements of heavy-duty off-road applications, as well as lighter-duty applications including on-road vehicles.

Plus-50 II is recommended for four-stroke naturally aspirated, turbocharged, and supercharged diesel engines with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF), Diesel Oxidation Catalysts (DOC), and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR). Examples of applications include heavy-duty off-road equipment, vehicles with John Deere Tier 4 engines, vehicles requiring CK-4 oil, on-road trucks, marine engines, natural gas engines, pickups, and automobiles. Plus-50 II is also recommended for use in all legacy diesel engine applications where Plus-50 has been in use. As part of the early development of Plus-50 II, John Deere engineers implemented the severe off-road dyno engine test, which incorporates the latest in engine emission technology.

Plus-50 II exceeds the demands of the John Deere severe off-road high-temperature dyno performance test. Proven performance along with extensive field testing allows extended drain intervals up to 500 hours when using Plus-50 II and John Deere filters for your John Deere engine. Refer to the Operator’s Manual to validate the recommended change interval for your specific machine.

CK-4 oil, such as Plus-50 II, must be used with Tier 4 engines, or significantly reduced DPF life will result.
