FEDERAL EMISSIONS WARRANTY
(California owner’s emissions warranty is covered elsewhere)
New Holland warrants that your new 1998 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 New Holland 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. New Holland 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 maintenanceor repairs be New Holland Service Parts to maintain the quality originally designed
into your emission certified engine. The use of non-New Holland parts does not invalidate the warranty on other components unless the use of
such parts causes damage to warranted parts.
New Holland 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 New Holland Branch Office for assistance. The address and phone
number of each Branch Office is in your vehicle owner’s manual. If additional assistance or information is needed, contact:
Service Department
New Holland North America, Inc.
500 Diller Avenue
New Holland, PA 17557
[phone]
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 New Holland.
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 New Holland’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 New Holland 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 New Holland dealers.
Coverage
This emission control system warranty applies to the following 450 and 450T engine emission control parts.

Fuel Injectors

Intake Manifold
Exhaust Manifold
Boost Pressure Tubing-connection to Aneroid Device ON F.I.P.
