WARRANTY
Since emission related parts may vary slightly from model to model, certain models may not contain all
of these parts and certain models may contain functionally equivalent parts.
WARRANTY SERVICE AND CHARGES
Warranty service shall be provided during customary business hours at any authorized John Deere
Commercial and Consumer Equipment Retailer located within the United States of America. Repair or
replacement of any warranted part will be performed at no charge to the owner, including diagnostic
labor which leads to the determination that a warranted part is defective, if the diagnostic work is
performed at an authorized John Deere Commercial and Consumer Equipment Retailer. Any parts
replaced under this warranty shall become the property of John Deere.
MAINTENANCE WARRANTY COVERAGE
a) Any warranted part which is not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance shall be
warranted as to defects for the warranty period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty
shall be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
b) Any warranted part which is scheduled only for regular inspection to the effect of “repair or replace
as necessary” shall be warranted as to defects for the warranty period. Any such part repaired or
replaced under the warranty shall be warranted for the remaining warranty period.
c) Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as required maintenance shall be warranted
as to defects only for the period of time up to the first scheduled replacement for that part. Any such
part repaired or replaced under the warranty shall be warranted for the remainder of the period prior to
the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
d) Normal maintenance, replacement or repair of emission control devices and systems, which are
being done at the customers expense, may be performed by any repair establishment or individual;
however, warranty repairs must be performed by an authorized John Deere Commercial and
Consumer Equipment Retailer.
e) Any replacement part that is equivalent in performance and durability may be used in the
performance of any non-warranty maintenance or repairs, and shall not reduce the warranty
obligations of John Deere.
CONSEQUENTIAL WARRANTY COVERAGE
Warranty coverage shall extend to the failure of any engine components caused by the failure of any
warranted part still under warranty.
LIMITATIONS

a) Repair or replacement required as a result of (i) misuse or neglect, (ii) improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications, (iii) repairs improperly performed or replacements improperly installed, (iv)
use of replacement parts or accessories not conforming to John Deere specifications which adversely
