Use and Care Manual

all receipts covering maintenance on your spark ignited off-road
engine equipment, but John Deere cannot deny warranty solely for
lack of receipts or for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
• As the spark ignited off-road engine equipment owner, you should
however be aware that John Deere may deny you warranty
coverage if your spark ignited off-road engine equipment or a part
has failed due to abuse, neglect, or improper maintenance or
unapproved modications.
• You are responsible for presenting your spark ignited off-road engine
equipment to a John Deere Turf and Utility distribution center or
service center as soon as a problem exists. The warranty repairs
should be completed in a reasonable amount of time, not to exceed
30 days. If you have a question regarding your warranty coverage,
you should contact your John Deere Turf and Utility retailer, or the
John Deere Customer Contact Center at 1- 800-537-8233, or e-mail
John Deere from www.Deere.com.
General Emissions Warranty Coverage
The warranty period begins on the date the equipment is delivered to
an ultimate purchaser. John Deere warrants to the ultimate purchaser
and each subsequent purchaser that the spark ignited off-road engine
equipment is:
• Designed, built and equipped so as to conform to all applicable
regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board;
• Designed, built and equipped so as to conform at the time of sale
with applicable U.S. Environmental Protection Agency regulations
under 40 CFR Parts 1054 and 1060: and,
• Free from defects in materials and workmanship which cause such
engine to fail to conform with applicable regulations for a period of
two years of engine use from the date of sale to the ultimate
purchaser.
Emissions Warranty Interpretation
• Any warranted part that is not scheduled for replacement as required
by the maintenance instructions in the Operator’s Manual is
warranted for two years. If any such part fails during the period of
warranty coverage it will be repaired or replaced by John Deere. Any
such part repaired or replaced under warranty is warranted for the
remaining warranty period.
• Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection in
the maintenance instructions in the Operator’s Manual is warranted
for two years. A statement in the Operator’s Manual to the effect of
“repair or replace as necessary” does not reduce the period of
warranty coverage. Any such part repaired or replaced under
warranty is warranted for the remaining warranty period.
• Any warranted part that is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance in the Operator’s Manual is warranted for the period of
time prior to the rst scheduled replacement point for that part. If the
part fails prior to the rst scheduled replacement, the part will be
repaired or replaced by John Deere. Any such part repaired or
replaced under warranty is warranted for the remainder of the period
prior to the rst scheduled replacement point for the part.
• Repair or replacement of any warranted part under the warranty will
be performed at no charge to the owner at any authorized John
Deere Turf and Utility retailer.
• The owner will not be charged for diagnostic labor which leads to the
determination that a warranted part is defective, provided such work
is performed by John Deere.
• John Deere will repair damages to other engine components
proximately caused by a failure under warranty of any emissions-
related warranted part.
• Add-on or modied parts that are not exempted by the California Air
Resources Board may not be used. The use of any non-exempted
add-on or modied parts will be grounds for disallowing a warranty
claim. John Deere will not be liable to warrant failures of warranted
parts caused by the use of a non-exempted add-on or modied part.
