Howdy there. Just happened on something I haven't seen before. Am a relatively new tractor owner, have 52 AC WD. Have changed the oil a couple times before but this time when I bought the filter it had a small section of dowel rod in the center of it. My previous filters ( came with the tractor ) didn't. What does this do? Is it part of the manufacturing process. I assume it has to be removed before the filter installed? Anybody able to help a rookie?

Thanks guys, I knew it had to have a purpose. Changed my oil the other day and the metal tube IS there so I should be in good shape. Again, thank you.

Unimog is correct. Before you install the new filter remove the wooden dowel rod. Then slide the filter down over the steel tube and screw it on. Caution: if the steel tube is missing you will want to call your local Agco dealer for a replacement. Without the steel tube the filter will NOT function correctly.

The dowel is there to open a channel through the
filtering material for easy installation. The oil
tube goes in place of the dowel. Without the dowel it's easy to break off the oil tube forcing
the filter in place.
