Your Warranty Rights and Obligations
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the California
Air Resources Board (CARB) and John Deere are pleased to explain the
emission control system warranty on your 1995 or later small off-road
equipment engine. In California, 1995 and later small off-road equipment
engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s
stringent anti-smog standards. In other states, 1997 and later model year
equipment engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the U.S.
EPA regulations for small non-road, spark ignition engines. John Deere
must warrant the emission control system on your small off-road
equipment engine for the periods of time listed below provided there has
been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your small off-road
equipment engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the carburetor,
fuel-injection system and ignition system. Also included may be
connectors and other emission related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, John Deere will repair your small
off-road equipment engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts and
labor.

warranted relative to emission control parts for two years. In other states,
1997 and later model year equipment engines are warranted relative to
emission control parts for two years. If any emission related part on your

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities
As the small off-road equipment engine owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed in your owner’s manual.
John Deere recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your small off-road equipment engine, 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 small off-road equipment engine owner, you should however be
aware that John Deere may deny you warranty coverage if your small off-
road equipment engine or a part has failed due to abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance or unapproved modifications.
You are responsible for presenting your small off-road equipment engine
to an authorized John Deere Commercial and Consumer Equipment
Retailer 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 any questions regarding your warranty rights and
responsibilities, you should contact your John Deere Commercial and
Consumer Equipment Retailer, or the John Deere Customer
Communications Center at 1-800-537-8233.
Length Of Warranty Coverage
John Deere warrants to the initial owner and each subsequent purchaser
that the small off-road equipment engine is:
• Designed, built and equipped so as to conform with all applicable
regulations adopted by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) for
1995 and later equipment engines, and all applicable regulations of the
United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for 1997 and later
equipment engines; and
• Free from defects in materials and workmanship which can cause the
failure of an emission warranted part for a period of two years after the

part during the warranty period. If any emission related part on your
engine is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced by John Deere.
