John Deere CWS / WTS

Brake fluid capacity & service interval

John Deere CWS / WTS models require 1 liter of brake fluid. Service intervals for brake fluid consist of a check every 200 hours. The data covers 4 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The John Deere CWS and WTS models from 2009-2012 each carry a hydraulic brake system with a capacity of 1 liter, which is consistent with a service fill volume rather than a full overhaul quantity.
  • The 1470 CWS and 1470 WTS share identical brake fluid specifications across the 2009-2012 range, with both calling for a 1-liter capacity and a 200-hour check interval under normal use conditions.
  • The 1570 CWS and 1570 WTS also align exactly with the 1470 series in brake fluid capacity and check interval, each specifying 1 liter and a 200-hour service check under normal use conditions.
  • A 200-hour check interval on a hydraulic brake system is a standard inspection-based schedule, meaning the fluid level and condition are assessed at that point rather than necessarily replaced in full.
  • The uniform 1-liter capacity across all four configurations, the 1470 CWS, 1470 WTS, 1570 CWS, and 1570 WTS, indicates no variation in brake system reservoir size between the CWS and WTS body styles within the same model number.
  • All four rows are designated under normal use conditions, meaning the 200-hour check interval applies to standard operating environments rather than elevated-stress or severe-duty scenarios.
