Filters

Post by Dan-dan100 »

Hi, looking for filters to perform a service on the power major, just a few questions.

From what I gather the filters needed are

Oil filter
Fuel filter
Lift pump gauze
Oil bath element

Is there any other filters I need/should be aware off


Also I am looking at the oil and fuel filter set agri line supply (below) is there also metal surrounds that should be purchased as there re different ones on the website?

Many thanks

Hi Dan,

They are both cartridge filters. The metal heads and housings are already on the tractor and you undo them, bin the old cartridge filter replace with the new one and do up.
On my 58 FPM the fuel is top left of the engine around half way down the length and the oil is bottom left tucked between the chassis rail and engine. I've classed left hand side as when you view the engine from the nose cone.

Depending on the engine i think here is an oil bath filter for the ventilation of the engine block. (I do not remember the name in English)
