Your Case IH dealer will instruct you in the general operation of your tractor. (Refer to the “Delivery Report” at
the back of this manual.) Your dealer’s staff of factory-trained service technicians will be glad to answer any
questions that may arise regarding the operation of your tractor.
Your Case IH dealer carries a complete line of genuine Case IH service parts. These parts are manufactured
and carefully inspected to insure high quality and accurate fitting of any necessary replacement parts. Be
prepared to give your dealer the model and product identification number of the tractor, when ordering parts.

FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY
(California owner’s emissions warranty is covered elsewhere)
Case IH warrants that your new 1996 and later heavy-duty off-road diesel engine was designed, built, and equipped to conform to applicable
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations for a period of use of five years or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.
The new model year, class of diesel engine, and emission application determination for your engine are identified on the emission control
information label affixed to the top of your engine’s rocker arm cover. The warranty period begins on the date the new equipment is sold to the
first retail purchaser.
Any emission control system parts which are proven defective during normal use will be repaired or replaced during the warranty period. The
warranty repairs and service will be performed by any authorized Case IH dealer at the dealer’s place of business, with no charge for parts or
labor (including diagnosis).
As the engine owner, you are responsible to perform all the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual. Case IH will not deny an
emission warranty claim solely because you have no record of maintenance; however, a claim may be denied if your failure to perform
maintenance resulted in the failure of a warranted part. Receipts covering regular maintenance should be retained in the event of questions
and these receipts should be passed on to each subsequent owner of the engine.
It is recommended replacement parts used for maintenance or repairs be Case IH Service Parts to maintain the quality originally designed into
your emission certified engine. The use of non-Case IH parts does not invalidate the warranty on other components unless the use of such
parts causes damage to warranted parts.
Case IH wishes to assure the emission control systems warranty is being properly administered. If you believe you have not received the
service entitled to under this warranty, you should contact the nearest Case IH Branch Office for assistance.
Please note that the Emission Warranty does not cover:
1. Systems and parts that were not first installed on the new equipment or engine as original equipment by Case IH.
2. Part malfunctions caused by abuse, misuse, improper adjustment, modification, alteration, tampering, disconnection, improper or
inadequate maintenance, or use of non-recommended fuels and lubricating oils.
3. Accident caused damage, acts of nature, or other events beyond Case IH’s control.
4. Replacement of expendable items made in connection with scheduled maintenance.
5. Parts requiring replacement, inspection or adjustment maintenance intervals for reasons other than being defective.
6. Parts which are not Case IH Service Parts.
7. Loss of time, inconvenience, loss of use of equipment/engine or commercial loss.
8. Equipment with altered or disconnected hourmeter where the hours cannot be determined.
9. Equipment normally operated outside the United States.
10. Non-defective parts replaced by other than Case IH dealers.

CALIFORNIA EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT
Your Warranty Rights and Obligations
The California Air Resources Board and Case IH are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your engine. In California, new
1997 and later heavy-duty off-road engines from 100 to 150 HP must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog
standards. Case IH must warrant the emission control system on your engine for the periods of time listed below, provided there has been no
abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system includes parts such as the fuel injection system and the air induction system.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Case IH will repair your heavy-duty off-road engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts, and labor.
Manufacturer’s Warranty Coverage:
The 1997 and later heavy-duty off-road engines are warranted from the original date of delivery for five years or 3,000 hours of operation,
whichever occurs first. If any emission-related part on your engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by Case IH.
Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:
DAs the heavy-duty off-road engine owner, you are responsible for the performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner’s
manual. Case IH recommends that you retain all receipts covering maintenance on your heavy-duty off-road engine, but Case IH cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all scheduled maintenance.
DAs the heavy-duty off-road engine owner, you should, however, be aware that Case IH may deny you warranty coverage if your
heavy-duty off-road engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance, or unapproved modifications.
DYour engine is designed to operate on commercially available diesel fuel only. Use of any other fuel may result in your engine no longer
operating in compliance with California’s emissions requirements.
DYou are responsible for initiating the warranty process. The ARB suggests that you present your heavy-duty off-road engine to a Case IH
dealer as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs should be completed by the dealer as expeditiously as possible.
If you have questions regarding your warranty rights and responsibilities, you should contact your Branch Office at the address and phone
number listed on the Owner Assistance page of your equipments operator manual.
DPrior to the expiration of the warranty, you must give notice of any failure of an emission control warranted part. Such notice must be given
to Case IH or an authorized dealer, and you must deliver the engine to the repair location.
DYou, the owner, are responsible for incidental costs incurred by yourself or your employees as a result of a warrantable failure. Examples
of such costs are communication expenses, meals and lodging.
DThe owner is responsible for any business costs or losses, any “downtime” expenses and any “cargo” damage which result from the
failure of a warranted part. Case IH is not responsible for other incidental or consequential damages, including but not limited to fines,
theft, vandalism or collisions.
Parts covered:
This emission control system warranty applies to the following emission control parts.
Fuel Injection Pump
Fuel Injectors
Turbocharger
Intake Manifold
Exhaust Manifold
Boost Pressure Tubing-connection to Aneroid Device ON F.I.P.
Any replacement part, equivalent in performance and durability, may be used in the performance of any maintenance or repairs and must be
provided without charge to the owner. The use of these parts does not reduce the warranty obligations of Case IH. However, Case IH
recommends the use of new, genuine Case IH service parts or Case IH approved rebuilt parts and assemblies. Case IH also recommends that
the engine be serviced by a Case IH authorized dealer.
Case IH Responsibilities
Warranty work will be provided at no charge to the owner at any authorized dealer, using new genuine Case IH service parts or Case IH
approved rebuilt parts or assemblies..
The owner will not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the determination that a warranted part is defective, if the diagnostic work was
performed at a warranty station.
Case IH is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure under warranty of any warranted part.
Warranty Limitations
Case IH is not responsible for failures resulting from abuse or neglect by owner or operator.
Case IH warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine is designed, built, and equipped so as to conform
with all applicable regulations adopted by the Air Resources Board, and that it is free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause
the failure of a warranted part.
Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance, or which is scheduled only for regular inspection to the
effect of “repair or replace as necessary” is warranted for the warranty period.
Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance is warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled
replacement point for that part.
Case IH is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure under warranty of any warranted part.
