READ THIS MANUAL carefully to learn how to operate  
and service your engine correctly. Failure to do so  
could result in personal injury or equipment damage.  
THIS MANUAL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED a  
permanent part of your engine and should remain with  
the engine when you sell it.  
MEASUREMENTS IN THIS MANUAL are given in both  
metric and customary U.S. unit equivalents. Use only

RIGHT-HAND AND LEFT-HAND sides are determined  
by standing at the drive or flywheel end (rear) of the  
engine and facing toward the front of the engine.  
WRITE ENGINE SERIAL NUMBERS and option codes  
in the spaces indicated in the Record Keeping Section.  
Accurately record all the numbers. Your dealer also  
needs these numbers when you order parts. File the  
identification numbers in a secure place off the engine.  
SETTING FUEL DELIVERY beyond published factory  
specifications or otherwise overpowering will result in  
loss of warranty protection for this engine.  
CERTAIN ENGINE ACCESSORIES such as radiator,  
air cleaner, and instruments are optional equipment on  
John Deere OEM Engines. These accessories may be  
provided by the equipment manufacturer instead of  
John Deere. This operator’s manual applies only to the  
engine and those options available through the John  
Deere distribution network.  
NOTE: Before 2005, all Non-certified and Tier 1  
Certified Saran built engines used the following  
serial number sequences:  
(CDxxxxD500000) - (CDxxxxD799999)  
(CDxxxxT500000) - (CDxxxxT799999)  
(CDxxxxH500000) - (CDxxxxH799999)  
NOTE: This operators manual covers only engines  
provided to OEM (Outside Equipment  
Manufacturers). For engines in Deere  
machines, refer to the machine operators  
manual.  
Since 2005, non-certified engines have the  
seventh digit of the serial number as “B” while  
Tier 1 certified engines have the seventh digit  
as “C”.

Engine Option Codes  
Engine Option Codes  
A—Engine Base Code  
In addition to the serial number plate, OEM engines  
have an engine option code label affixed to the rocker  
arm cover. These codes indicate which of the engine  
options were installed on your engine at the factory.  
When in need of parts or service, furnish your  
authorized servicing dealer or engine distributor with  
these numbers.  
The engine option code label includes an engine base  
code (A). This base code must also be recorded along  
with the option codes.  
The first two digits of each code identify a specific  
group, such as alternators. The last two digits of each  
code identify one specific option provided on your  
engine, such as a 12-volt, 55-amp alternator.  
NOTE: These option codes are based on the latest  
information available at the time of publication.  
The right is reserved to make changes at any  
time without notice.  
If an engine is ordered without a particular component,  
the last two digits of that functional group option code  
will be 99, 00, or XX. The list on the next page shows  
only the first two digits of the code numbers. For future  
reference such as ordering repair parts, it is important  
to have these code numbers available. To ensure this  
availability, enter the third and fourth digits shown on  
your engine option code label in the spaces provided  
on the following page.

Lubricity of Diesel Fuel  
Most diesel fuels manufactured in the United States,  
Canada, and the European Union have adequate  
lubricity to ensure proper operation and durability of  
fuel injection system components. However, diesel  
fuels manufactured in some areas of the world may  
lack the necessary lubricity.  
Fuel lubricity should pass a minimum load level of  
3100 grams as measured by ASTM D6078 or a  
maximum scar diameter of 0.45 mm as measured by  
ASTM D6079 or ISO 12156-1.

service the fuel system.  
Fill the fuel tank at the end of each day’s operation to  
prevent water condensation and freezing during cold  
weather.  
IMPORTANT: The fuel tank is vented through the  
filler cap. If a new filler cap is  
required, always replace it with an  
original vented cap.  
Keep all storage tanks as full as practicable to  
minimize condensation.  
When fuel is stored for an extended period or if there  
is a slow turnover of fuel, add a fuel conditioner to  
stabilize the fuel and prevent water condensation.  
Contact your fuel supplier for recommendations.  
Ensure that all fuel tank caps and covers are installed

Bio-diesel fuels may be used ONLY if the bio-diesel  
fuel properties meet the latest edition of ASTM D6751,  
EN 14214, or equivalent specification.  
A major environmental benefit of bio-diesel fuel is its  
ability to biodegrade. This makes proper storage and  
handling of bio-diesel fuel especially important. Areas  
of concern include:  
It is recommended to purchase bio-diesel fuel blended  
with B100 from a BQ-9000 Accredited Producer or a  
BQ-9000 Certified Marketer as recommended by the  
National Bio-diesel Board.  
Quality of new fuel  
Water content of the fuel  
Problems due to aging of the fuel  
The maximum allowable bio-diesel concentration is a  
5% blend (also known as B5) in petroleum diesel fuel.  
It has been found that bio-diesel fuels may improve  
lubricity in concentrations up to this 5% blend.  
Potential problems resulting from deficiencies in the  
above areas when using bio-diesel fuel in  
concentrations above 5% may lead to the following  
symptoms:  
When using a blend of bio-diesel fuel, the engine oil  
level must be checked daily when the air temperature

Minimizing the Effect of Cold Weather on Diesel Engines  
John Deere diesel engines are designed to operate  
effectively in cold weather.  
CAUTION: Do not use any starting fluid with  
an engine equipped with glow plugs  
However, for effective starting and cold weather  
operation, a little extra care is necessary. The  
information below outlines steps that can minimize the  
effect that cold weather may have on starting and  
operation of your engine. See your John Deere dealer  
for additional information and local availability of cold  
weather aids  
Coolant Heater  
An engine block heater (coolant heater) is an available  
option to aid cold weather starting.  
Seasonal Viscosity Oil and Proper Coolant  
Concentration  
Use Winter Grade Fuel  
Use seasonal grade viscosity engine oil based ion the  
expected air temperature range between oil changes  
and proper concentration of low silicate antifreeze as  
recommended. (See DIESEL ENGINE OIL and  
ENGINE COOLANT requirements this section.)  
When temperatures fall below 5°C (40°F), winter grade  
fuel (Grade No. 1-D fuel in North America) is best  
suited for cold weather operation. Winter grade fuel  
has a lower cloud point and a lower pour point.  
Diesel Fuel Flow Additive  
Cloud point is the temperature at which wax will begin  
to form in the fuel and this wax causes fuel filters to  
plug. Pour point is the temperature at which fuel  
begins to thicken and becomes more resistant to flow  
through fuel pumps and lines.  
Use John Deere Premium Diesel Fuel Conditioner  
(Winter) or equivalent to treat fuel during the cold  
weather season. This winter formulation is a  
combination diesel fuel conditioner and anti-gel  
additive.  
NOTE: On an average, winter grade fuel has a lower  
BTU (heat content) rating. Using winter grade  
fuel may reduce power and fuel efficiency, but  
should not cause any other engine  
IMPORTANT: Treat fuel when outside temperature  
drops below 0°C (32°F). For best  
results, use with untreated fuel.  
Follow all recommended instructions  
on label.  
performance effects. Check the grade of fuel  
being used before troubleshooting for low  
power complaints in cold weather operation.  
Winterfronts  
Air Intake Heater  
Use of fabric, cardboard , or solid winterfronts is not  
recommended with any John Deere engine. Their use  
can result in excessive engine coolant, oil, and charge  
air temperatures. This can lead to reduced engine life,  
loss of power and poor fuel economy. Winterfronts  
may also put abnormal stress on fan and fan drive  
components potentially causing premature failures.  
An air intake heater is an available option to aid cold  
weather starting.  
CAUTION: Do not use any starting fluid with  
an air intake heater.  
Starting Fluid  
A starting fluid port on the intake is available to aid  
cold weather starting.

Additional Information About Diesel Engine Coolants and Supplemental Coolant  
Additives  
Engine coolants are a combination of three chemical  
components: ethylene glycol or propylene glycol  
antifreeze, inhibiting coolant additives, and quality  
water.  
simple mixture of ethylene glycol or propylene glycol  
and water will not give adequate protection.  
Use of supplemental coolant additives reduces  
corrosion, erosion, and pitting. These chemicals  
reduce the number of vapor bubbles in the coolant and  
help form a protective film on cylinder liner surfaces.  
This film acts as a barrier against the harmful effects  
of collapsing vapor bubbles.  
Coolant specifications  
Some products, including John Deere COOL-GARD  
Prediluted Coolant, are fully formulated coolants that  
contain all three components in their correct  
concentrations. Do not add an initial charge of  
supplemental coolant additives to these fully  
formulated products.  
Avoid automotive-type coolants  
Never use automotive-type coolants (such as those  
meeting ASTM D3306). These coolants do not contain  
the correct additives to protect heavy-duty diesel  
engines. They often contain a high concentration of  
silicates and may damage the engine or cooling  
system.  
Coolants meeting ASTM D6210 do not require an  
initial charge of supplemental coolant additives.  
Some coolant concentrates, including John Deere  
COOL-GARD Coolant Concentrate, contain both glycol  
antifreeze and inhibiting coolant additives. Mix these  
products with quality water, but do not add an initial  
charge of supplemental coolant additives.  
Water quality  
Water quality is important to the performance of the  
cooling system. Distilled, deionized, or demineralized  
water is recommended for mixing with ethylene glycol  
and propylene glycol base engine coolant concentrate.  
All water used in the cooling system should meet the  
following minimum specifications for quality:  
Coolants meeting ASTM D4985 require an initial  
charge of supplemental coolant additives.  
Replenish coolant additives  
Chlorides  
<40 mg/L  
<100 mg/L

recommended coolants, replenish additives between  
drain intervals by adding a supplemental coolant  
additive every 12 months or as determined necessary  
by coolant testing.  
If other coolants are used, consult the coolant supplier  
and follow the manufacturer’s recommendation for use  
of supplemental coolant additives.  
The use of non-recommended supplemental coolant  
additives may result in additive drop-out and gelation  
of the coolant.  
John Deere COOLANT CONDITIONER is  
recommended as a supplemental coolant additive in  
John Deere engines.  
Add the manufacturer’s recommended concentration of

Warming Engine  
IMPORTANT: To assure proper lubrication, operate  
engine at or below 1200 rpm with no  
load for 1–2 minutes. Extend this period  
2–4 minutes when operating at  
temperatures below freezing.  
Engines used in generator set  
applications where the governor is  
locked at a specified speed may not  
have a slow idle function. Operate these  
engines at high idle for 1 to 2 minutes  
before applying the load. This  
procedure does not apply to standby  
generator sets where the engine is  
loaded immediately upon reaching rated  
speed.  
Standard North American Instrument Panel  
1. Check oil pressure gauge (A) as soon as engine starts.  
If gauge needle does not rise above minimum oil  
pressure specification of 105 kPa (1.05 bar) (15.0 psi)  
within 5 seconds, stop the engine and determine the  
cause. Normal engine oil pressure is 345 kPa (3.45  
bar) (50 psi) at rated full load speed (1800–2500 rpm)  
with oil at normal operating temperature of 115°C  
(240°F).

A—Oil Pressure Gauge  
B—Coolant Temperature Gauge  
NOTE: On certain engines, the oil pressure and coolant  
temperature gauges are replaced by indicator  
warning lights. The lights must be "OFF" when  
engine is running.  
2. Watch coolant temperature gauge (B). Do not place  
engine under full load until it is properly warmed up.  
The normal engine coolant temperature range is 82°—  
94°C (180°—202°F).  
NOTE: It is a good practice to operate the engine under a  
lighter load and at lower speeds than normal for  
the first few minutes after start-up.

Normal engine coolant operating temperature range is  
82°—94°C (180°—202°F). If coolant temperature rises  
above 112°C (234°F), reduce load on engine. Unless  
temperature drops quickly, stop engine and determine  
cause before resuming operation.  
Stop engine immediately if there are any signs of part  
failure. Symptoms that may be early signs of engine  
problems are:  
Sudden drop in oil pressure  
Abnormal coolant temperatures  
Unusual noise or vibration  
Sudden loss of power  
Excessive black exhaust

Cold Weather Operation  
CAUTION: Ether injector starting fluid is highly  
flammable. DO NOT use starting fluid on  
engines equipped with air intake heaters.  
DO NOT use starting fluid near fire, sparks, or  
flames. DO NOT incinerate or puncture a  
starting fluid container.  
Engines may be equipped with intake air heaters, coolant  
heaters, or ether injectors as a cold weather starting aid.  
Handle Starting Fluid with Care  
Starting aids are required below 32°F (0°C). They will  
enhance starting performance above these temperatures  
and may be needed to start applications that have high  
parasitic loads during cranking and/or start acceleration to  
idle.  
Using correct grade of oil (per engine and machine  
operator’s manual) is critical to achieving adequate cold  
weather cranking speed.  
Other cold weather starting aids are required at  
temperatures below -22°F (-30°C) or at altitudes above  
1500 m (5000 ft).  
1. Follow steps 1—4 as listed under , then proceed as  
follows according to the instrument (gauge) panel on  
your engine.  
2. Switch on the air intake heater for 30 seconds or  
activate ether injector by following suppliers  
instructions.

RG,RG34710,5561 –19–07JAN02–1/1  
Avoid Excessive Engine Idling  
Prolonged idling may cause the engine coolant  
temperature to fall below its normal range. This, in  
turn, causes crankcase oil dilution, due to incomplete  
fuel combustion, and permits formation of gummy  
deposits on valves, pistons, and piston rings. It also  
promotes rapid accumulation of engine sludge and  
unburned fuel in the exhaust system.  
speed. Slow idle speed for this engine is 850 rpm at  
factory. If an engine will be idling for more than 5  
minutes, stop and restart later.  
NOTE: Generator set applications where the governor  
is locked at a specified speed may not have a  
slow idle function. These engines will idle at no  
load governed speed (high idle).  
Once an engine is warmed to normal operating  
temperatures, engine should be idled at slow idle

(B), check gauge to determine if air cleaner needs to  
be serviced.  
IMPORTANT: Maximum air intake restriction is 6.25  
kPa (0.06 bar) (1.0 psi) (25 in. H2O). A  
clogged air cleaner element will cause  
excessive intake restriction and a  
Dust Unloader Valve and Indicator Gauge  
reduced air supply to the engine.  
A—Dust Unloader Valve  
B—Air Restriction Indicator  
5. Make a thorough inspection of the engine  
compartment. Look for oil or coolant leaks, worn fan  
and accessory drive belts, loose connections and trash  
build-up. Remove trash buildup and have repairs made  
as needed if leaks are found.  
NOTE: Wipe all fittings, caps, and plugs before  
performing any maintenance to reduce the chance  
of system contamination.  
Inspect:  
Radiator for leaks and trash build-up.  
Air intake system hoses and connections for cracks  
and loose clamps.  
Fan, alternator, and accessory drive belts for cracks,  
breaks or other damage.  
Water pump for coolant leaks.

Checking Air Compressor (If Equipped)  
Air compressors are offered as options with John Deere  
OEM engines to provide compressed air to operate  
air-powered devices like vehicle air brakes.  
Air compressors are engine-driven piston types. They are  
either air cooled or cooled with engine coolant. The  
compressors are lubricated with engine oil. The  
compressor runs continuously as gear or spline driven by  
the auxiliary drive of the engine but has “loaded” and  
“unloaded” operating modes. This is controlled by the  
vehicle’s air system (refer to vehicle technical manual for  
complete air system checks and services).  
See your John Deere engine distributor or servicing dealer  
for diagnostic and troubleshooting information. If diagnosis  
leads to an internal fault in the compressor, replace the  
complete compressor as a new or remanufactured unit.

Bleeding the Fuel System  
CAUTION: Escaping fluid under pressure can  
penetrate the skin causing serious injury.  
Relieve pressure before disconnecting fuel or  
other lines. Tighten all connections before  
applying pressure. Keep hands and body away  
from pinholes and nozzles which eject fluids  
under high pressure. Use a piece of cardboard  
or paper to search for leaks. Do not use your  
hand.  
High-Pressure Fluids  
If ANY fluid is injected into the skin, it must be  
surgically removed within a few hours by a  
doctor familiar with this type injury or gangrene  
may result. Doctors unfamiliar with this type of  
injury may call the Deere & Company Medical  
Department in Moline, Illinois, or other  
knowledgeable medical source.  
Bleed the fuel system anytime the fuel system has been  
opened up. This includes:  
After fuel filter changes.  
After injection pump or nozzle replacement.  
Anytime fuel lines have been disconnected.  
After engine has run out of fuel.  
IMPORTANT: DO NOT pressurize fuel tank to push  
fuel through system, as the pressure  
can damage fuel injection pump seals

Diagnose the problem starting with the easiest  
things first.  
Later in this section is a list of possible engine  
problems that may be encountered accompanied by  
possible causes and corrections. The illustrated  
diagrams and troubleshooting information are of a  
general nature, final design of the overall system for  
your engine application may be different. See your  
engine distributor or servicing dealer if you are in  
doubt.  
Double-check before beginning the disassembly.  
Determine cause and make a thorough repair.  
After making repairs, operate the engine under  
normal conditions to verify that the problem and  
cause was corrected.

Storage  
Engine Storage Guidelines  
1. John Deere engines can be stored outside for up to  
three (3) months with no long term preparation IF  
COVERED BY WATERPROOF COVERING. No  
outside storage is recommended without a  
waterproof covering.  
4. John Deere engines expected to be stored more  
than six (6) months MUST have long term storage  
preparation. ( See PREPARING ENGINE FOR  
LONG TERM STORAGE, later in this section.)  
5. Long term storage includes the use of a stabilized  
rust preventive oil to protect internal metal  
2. John Deere engines can be stored in a standard  
overseas shipping container for up to three (3)  
months with no long term preparation.  
components of the engine. This oil should be an  
SAE 10 oil with 1-4 percent morpholine or  
equivalent vapor corrosion inhibitor. These rust  
preventive oils are available from area distributors.  
3. John Deere engines can be stored inside for up to  
six (6) months with no long term preparation.

Storage  
Preparing Engine for Long Term Storage  
The following storage preparations are used for long  
term engine storage up to one year. After that, the  
engine should be started, warmed up, and retreated  
for an extended storage period.  
6. Remove existing lines/plugs as required, and run a  
temporary line from the tank to the engine fuel  
intake, and another temporary line from the fuel  
return manifold to the tank, so rust preventive oil  
solution is circulated through the injection system  
during cranking.  
IMPORTANT: Any time your engine will not be  
used for over six (6) months, the  
following recommendations for  
storing it and removing it from  
storage will help to minimize  
7. Crank the engine several revolutions with starter  
(do not allow the engine to start). This will allow  
rust preventive oil solution to circulate.  
corrosion and deterioration.  
8. Remove temporary lines installed in Step 6 above,  
and replace any lines/plugs previously removed.  
1. Change engine oil and replace filter. (See CHANGE  
ENGINE OIL AND FILTER in Lubrication and  
Maintenance/500 Hour Section.) Used oil will not  
give adequate protection. Add one (1) ounce of rust  
preventive oil to the engine crankcase for every  
quart of oil. This rust preventive oil should be an  
SAE 10 oil with 1-4 percent morpholine or  
NOTE: One gallon of fuel/oil solution can be used to  
treat 100 engines; two gallons to treat 200  
engines, etc. The oil could then be replenished  
by adding an additional five (5) ounces of rust  
preventive oil per gallon of solution. However,  
starting over with a new solution is  
equivalent vapor corrosion inhibitor.  
recommended to dispose of any water or other  
impurities.  
2. Service air cleaner. (See REPLACING AIR  
CLEANER FILTER ELEMENTS in Service As  
Required Section.)  
9. Loosen, or remove and store, fan/alternator  
poly-vee belt.  
3. Draining and flushing of cooling system is not  
necessary if engine is to be stored only for several  
months. However, for extended storage periods of a  
year or longer, it is recommended that the cooling  
system be drained, flushed, and refilled. Refill with  
appropriate coolant. (See RECOMMENDED  
ENGINE COOLANT in Fuels, Lubricants, and  
Coolant Section and ADDING COOLANT in Service  
As Required Section.)  
10. Remove and clean batteries. Store them in a cool,  
dry place and keep them fully charged.  
11. Disengage the clutch for any driveline.  
12. Clean the exterior of the engine with salt-free  
water and touch up any scratched or chipped  
painted surfaces with a good quality paint.  
4. Pour three (3) ounces of rust preventive oil into the  
turbocharger intake. (It may be necessary to  
temporarily install a short intake elbow on the  
turbocharger inlet to receive the oil.)  
13. Coat all exposed (machined) metal surfaces with  
grease or corrosion inhibitor if not feasible to paint.  
14. Seal all openings on engine with plastic bags and  
tape.  
5. Prepare a tank with a solution of diesel fuel and  
rust preventive oil, at ten (10) ounces of rust  
preventive oil per gallon of diesel fuel.

Storage  
15. Store the engine in a dry protected place. If  
engine must be stored outside, cover it with a  
waterproof canvas or other suitable protective  
material and use a strong waterproof tape.

Removing Engine from Long Term Storage  
Refer to the appropriate section for detailed services  
listed below or have your authorized servicing dealer  
or engine distributor perform services that you may not  
be familiar with.  
IMPORTANT: DO NOT operate starter more than  
30 seconds at a time. Wait at least 2  
minutes for starter to cool before  
trying again.  
1. Remove all protective coverings from engine.  
Unseal all openings in engine and remove covering  
from electrical systems.  
6. Crank engine for 20 seconds with starter (do not  
allow the engine to start). Wait 2 minutes and crank  
engine an additional 20 seconds to assure bearing  
surfaces are adequately lubricated.  
2. Remove the batteries from storage. Install batteries  
(fully charged) and connect the terminals.  
7. Start engine and run at low idle and no load for  
several minutes. Warm up carefully and check all  
gauges before placing engine under load.  
3. Install fan/alternator poly-vee belt if removed.  
4. Fill fuel tank.  
8. On the first day of operation after storage, check  
overall engine for leaks and check all gauges for  
correct operation.  
5. Perform all appropriate prestarting checks. ( See  
DAILY PRESTARTING CHECKS in Lubrication and  
Maintenance/Daily Section.)

Engine Crankcase Oil Fill Quantities  
NOTE: Crankcase oil capacity may vary slightly from  
amount shown. ALWAYS fill crankcase to within  
crosshatch on dipstick. DO NOT overfill.  
To determine the option code for the oil fill quantity of  
your engine, refer to the engine option code label affixed  
to the rocker arm cover. The first two digits of the code  
(19) identify the oil pan option group. The last two digits of  
each code identify the specific oil pan on your engine.  
The following table lists engine crankcase oil fill quantities  
for each “19__” option code for these engines.

Torque values listed are for general use only, based on the strength of the  
bolt or screw. DO NOT use these values if a different torque value or  
tightening procedure is given for a specific application. For plastic insert or  
crimped steel type lock nuts, for stainless steel fasteners, or for nuts on  
U-bolts, see the tightening instructions for the specific application. Shear  
bolts are designed to fail under predetermined loads. Always replace shear  
bolts with identical grade.  
Replace fasteners with the same or higher grade. If higher  
grade fasteners are used, tighten these to the strength of the  
original. Make sure fastener threads are clean and that you  
properly start thread engagement. When possible, lubricate  
plain or zinc plated fasteners other than lock nuts, wheel bolts  
or wheel nuts, unless different instructions are given for the  
specific application.  
aGrade 2 applies for hex cap screws (not hex bolts) up to 6. in (152 mm) long. Grade 1 applies for hex cap screws over 6 in. (152 mm) long,  
and for all other types of bolts and screws of any length.  
b“Lubricated” means coated with a lubricant such as engine oil, fasteners with phosphate and oil coatings, or 7/8 in. and larger fasteners with  
JDM F13C zinc flake coating.  
c“Dry” means plain or zinc plated without any lubrication, or 1/4 to 3/4 in. fasteners with JDM F13B zinc flake coating.

Torque values listed are for general use only, based on the strength  
of the bolt or screw. DO NOT use these values if a different torque  
value or tightening procedure is given for a specific application. For  
stainless steel fasteners or for nuts on U-bolts, see the tightening  
instructions for the specific application. Tighten plastic insert or  
crimped steel type lock nuts by turning the nut to the dry torque  
shown in the chart, unless different instructions are given for the  
specific application.  
Shear bolts are designed to fail under predetermined loads. Always  
replace shear bolts with identical property class. Replace fasteners  
with the same or higher property class. If higher property class  
fasteners are used, tighten these to the strength of the original. Make  
sure fastener threads are clean and that you properly start thread  
engagement. When possible, lubricate plain or zinc plated fasteners  
other than lock nuts, wheel bolts or wheel nuts, unless different  
instructions are given for the specific application.  
a“Lubricated” means coated with a lubricant such as engine oil, fasteners with phosphate and oil coatings, or M20 and larger fasteners with  
JDM F13C zinc flake coating.  
b“Dry” means plain or zinc plated without any lubrication, or M6 to M18 fasteners with JDM F13B zinc flake coating.

Emission System Warranty  
U.S. EPA Emissions Control Warranty Statement  
Emissions control-related parts and components are  
warranted by John Deere for five years or 3000 hours  
of operation, whichever occurs first. John Deere further  
warrants that the engine covered by this warranty was  
designed, built, and equipped so as to conform at the  
time of sale with all U.S. emissions standards at the  
time of manufacture, and that it is free of defects in  
materials and workmanship which would cause it not  
to meet these standards within the period of five years  
or 3000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first.  
Warranties stated in this manual refer only to  
emissions-related parts and components of your  
engine. The complete engine warranty, less  
emissions-related parts and components, is provided  
separately as the “John Deere New Off-Highway  
Engine Warranty”.  
OUOD006,000004E –19–01NOV06–1/1  
Emissions Control System Certification Label  
CAUTION: Statutes providing severe penalties  
for tampering with emissions controls may  
apply to the user or dealer.  
The emissions warranty described above applies only to  
those engines marketed by John Deere that have been  
certified by the United States Environmental Protection  
Agency (EPA) and/or California Air Resources Board  
(CARB), and used in the United States and Canada. The  
presence of an emissions label like the one shown  
signifies that the engine has been certified with the EPA  
and/or CARB. The EPA and CARB warranties only apply  
to new engines having the certification label affixed to the  
engine and sold as stated above in the geographic areas.  
The presence of an EU number in the third line of the  
label signifies that the engine has been certified with the  
European Union countries per Directive 97/68/EC. The  
emissions warranty does not apply to the EU countries.  
Emissions Label  
NOTE: The hp/kW rating on the engine emissions  
certification label specifies the gross engine  
hp/kW, which is flywheel power without fan. In  
most applications this will not be the same rating  
as the advertised vehicle hp/kW rating.
