When no air bubbles are seen close vent screw. Pump the hand primer until resistance is felt. Repeat until no air bubbles flow from vent screw. Then tighten bleed screw.

Fuel Injection Pump

Loosen fuel return line at fuel injection pump. Have a second person pump hand primer on fuel transfer pump. When no air bubbles are seen tighten fuel return line. Pump the hand primer until resistance is felt. Repeat until no air bubbles flow from fuel return line. Then tighten fuel return line. Fuel Return Line Torque - 27 Nm (20 lb-ft).

John Deere 5050E, 5058E, 5067E - Air Filters

Inspect Engine Air Intake Filters

A dual element air cleaner is standard. A dirty primary element is indicated when air filter restriction indicator on instrument panel illuminates. A dirty element results in loss of power or excessive smoke. Clean primary element when indicator on instrument panel illuminates or every 250 hours. Replace both elements at the same time annually, regardless of condition. Raise hood. Release Latch and remove Cover from sideways. Rotate Primary filter element anticlock wise to remove. Do not use excessive force. If filter does not pull out with ease, check for unlock position to remove safely. Clean primary element by tapping gently on palm of your hand. DO NOT tap element against a hard surface. Clean element with blowing compressed air (Max pressure of 1.3 Bar / 20 PSI).

Hold nozzle next to inner surface, and move up and down pleats. Clean out any dirt in canister taking care
not to damage the secondary filter element. Secondary filter element is removed only when being replaced. If it looks dirty or damaged do not attempt to clean, replace it. Removal of the secondary element is similar to removal of the primary element. Install secondary filter element carefully and lock the filter by rotating the 1/4 turn in clockwise direction. If primary filter is not damaged and indicator on instrument panel remains illuminated, replace both filters. Installation of the primary filter element is similar to installation of the secondary filter element. Close cover and raise latch. Lower hood.

Replace Engine Air Intake Filters

Raise hood. Release Latch and remove Cover from sideways. Rotate Primary element filter anticlock wise to remove. Do not use excessive force. If filter does not pull out with ease, move side-to-side to remove safely. Removal of Secondary filter is similar to removal of Primary filter. When installing the air cleaner canister, make sure that the dust unloader valve is facing down. Install new secondary filter element carefully and lock the filter by rotating the 1/4 turn in clockwise direction. Installation of new primary filter element is similar to installation of the secondary filter element. Close cover and raise latch. Make sure arrow on cover points upwards (not be exactly vertical up) and maintain no gap between cover and canister. Lower hood.

JD 5050E, 5058E, 5067E - Replace Air Cleaner Elements

Open hood. Release clips. Remove cover. Remove primary element by rotating it in counterclockwise. Clean out any dirt in canister taking care not to damage the secondary filter element. Remove secondary element (inner element) ONLY if it is to be replaced. DO NOT attempt to clean secondary element. If secondary element is replaced, install new element immediately to prevent dust from entering air intake system. Remove secondary element. When installing the air cleaner canister, make sure that the dust unloader valve is facing down. Install secondary element, primary element and cover. After installing primary element rotate it clockwise to lock it into place. Close hood.

Clean Engine Crankcase Vent Tube

Service Interval - 600 Hours. Locate crankcase vent port on top right-hand side of engine. Remove crankcase vent tube from open crankcase ventilation filter. Wash in solvent or blow clean with compressed air. Inspect tube for damage, replace if necessary. Install vent tube. Make sure vent tube is not kinked or pinched.

John Deere 5050E, 5058E, 5067E Cooling System

Flush Cooling System

For efficient operation, drain old coolant, flush the entire system, and fill with clean coolant at least once every two years. Remove guard by loosening screws. Drain coolant - Remove radiator cap. Open drain plug on radiator and drain coolant from radiator. Drain coolant from engine block. Thermostat must be removed to ensure a thorough flush. Remove thermostat cover, remove thermostat, and install cover (without thermostat). Tighten cap screws to specification.Thermostat Cover Cap Screws Torque - 48 Nm (35 lb-ft).

Flush system with water - Close all drain valves/plugs and fill system with clean water. Run engine about 10 minutes to stir up possible rust or sediment. Stop engine and drain water from system before rust and sediment settle. Flush system with radiator cleaner - Close all drain valve/plugs, reinstall cold start aid switch and fill the cooling system with a good commercial radiator cleaner and water. Follow instructions provided with cleaner. Stop engine and immediately drain system.

Flush system with water - Close all drain valves/plugs, reinstall cold start aid switch and fill with clean water to flush the system. Run the engine about 10 minutes, then drain out flushing water. Remove thermostat cover and clean off the gasket material. Apply gasket sealant to new gasket and install thermostat and cover. Tighten cap screws to
specification. Fill with fresh coolant - Close all drain valves/plugs and fill with coolant. Check coolant level - Fill radiator to the top of the filler neck and fill the recovery tank to the LOW mark. Run the engine until operating temperature is reached.

Let the engine cool (preferably overnight) and recheck the coolant level. Coolant level with a cold engine should
be at the LOW mark. An engine at operating temperature should have a coolant level at the FULL mark. When filling the cooling system it may require several operating/cooling periods to stabilize the coolant level in the system. Add make-up coolant to the recovery tank as needed to bring the coolant level to the correct mark. Install guard using screws.

John Deere 5050E, 5058E, 5067E - Check Coolant Level

Service Interval - Daily / 10 Hours. Shut off engine. Only remove surge tank filler cap when cool enough to touch with bare hands. Slowly loosen cap to first stop to relieve pressure before removing completely. Never pour cold water into the cooling system of a hot engine, as it might crack cylinder block or head. Do not operate engine without coolant for even a few minutes. Raise hood. Coolant level should be checked when engine is COOL. Check level in coolant reservoir BEFORE starting tractor. If engine is COOL and level is below the MIN COLD mark, remove cap and add coolant to reservoir to bring level between MIN and MAX COLD mark. Install cap and lower hood.

Clean Grille, Screen Assembly, Intercooler, Fuel Cooler, Oil Cooler and Radiator

Whenever dirt builds up on the front screen, stop engine and brush clean. Push the hood latch release using ignition key inside to unlatch and unlock the hood. Raise the hood. The cylinders help to raise the hood and keep it in this position once it is up. Remove screen. Clean intercooler, fuel cooler, oil cooler and radiator at the installed condition. If more cleaning is necessary, clean radiator from behind with compressed air or water. Straighten any bent fins. Clean screen and install.
