on the engine. If the engine is operated in the United States or Canada and the engine label states: “This engine complies with US EPA regulations
for nonroad and stationary diesel engines”, or “This engine complies with US EPA regulations for stationary emergency diesel engines”, refer to the
“U.S. and Canada Emission Control Warranty Statement.” If the engine is operated in California, and the engine label states: “This engine complies
with US EPAand CARB regulations for nonroad diesel engines” also refer to the “California Emissions Control Warranty Statement.”
Warranties stated on this certificate refer only to emissions-related parts and components of your engine. The complete engine warranty, less
emission-related parts and components, is provided separately. If you have any questions about your warranty rights and responsibilities,
you should contact John Deere at 1-319-292-5400.
CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT:
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is pleased to explain the emission-control system warranty on 2013 through 2015 off-road diesel
engines. In California, new off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. John Deere
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 may include parts such as the fuel injection system and the air induction system. Also included may be hoses, belts,
connectors and other emission-related assemblies.
John Deere warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that this off-road diesel engine was designed, built, and equipped
so as to conform at the time of sale with all applicable regulations adopted by CARB and is free from defects in materials and workmanship which
would cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in John Deere's application for certification
for a period of five years from the date the engine is delivered to an ultimate purchaser or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first for all
engines rated at 19 kW and greater. In the absence of a device to measure hours of use, the engine shall be warranted for a period of fiveyears.
EMISSIONS WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:
John Deere may deny warranty claims for failures caused by the use of an add-on or modified part which has not been exempted by the CARB. A
modified part is an aftermarket part intended to replace an original emission-related part which is not functionally identical in all respects and which
in any way affects emissions. An add-on part is any aftermarket part which is not a modified part or a replacement part.
In no event will John Deere, any authorized engine distributor, dealer, or repair facility, or any company affiliated with John Deere be liable
for incidental or consequential damage.
