Default Diesel oil and filter

Hi All,
What oil is suggested for winter use in the diesel models (1572) and which oil filter make and part number would be the best.
Also is there a manual that would be suggested, I did not get any manuals with my tractor.

Thank you,
Mike

I use Shell Rotella T 15W-40 in my 782D. I had many, many people recommend that to me when I bought the tractor.

Try here for manuals.

Default Diesel oil

Thanks Matt,
I will get the Rotella oil, I use the 30 weight in my gas engines already. The manual is great info. Do you happen too have the oil filter part number by chance?
Thanks again,
Mike

About the only diesels that don't use 15w40 are Detroits. The 15w40's have all the appropriate diesel fuel additives that are necessary for most diesel engines.
Detroits use straight 30W. Some changes based on weather conditions.

There are 4 major brands that you can rely on...Rotella T, Delo, Mobil and Motorcraft.

If you are a synthetic believer, than use one quart of synthetic for each oil change. Synthetic's major benefit is the fact that it stays on the bearing surfaces during shut downs and for very long periods of non use. Most regular oils will eventually drain off the surfaces after long non use periods.
There are other benefits, but this is the most obvious. This was told to me by an oil company representative years back at a major race.

I *think* the Purolator number is L14459, but that is completely from memory. Verify before you buy one...

I too would only use 15w40 Rotella T. Btw when you say Detroits you must be refering to the 2 stroke Detroits. We use SAE 40 in our 2 strokes. If it's a Series 60 or even a Series 50 we still use Rotella 15w40.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
