I did that when I had a larger filter. What is the reason to change the filter? As I see it it's because it may be nearly full of solid material and could reduce the oil flow to a dangerous level. Low hours plus the fact that our engine compartments have very very little dust or dirt availible to fill up and plug a filter.
