US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Warranty Statement
CASE CONSTRUCTION warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that the engine
is designed, built and equipped so as to conform with US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations
applicable at the time of manufacture and that it is free from defects in workmanship or material which would
cause it not to meet these regulations for a period of:
• 2 years or 1,500 hours of operation, whichever occurs first, for engines less than 19 kW (25 Hp)
• 5 years or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first, for engines greater than or equal to 19 kW (25 Hp)
NOTE: this warranty applies to all units operated in the United States or Canada.
Coverage
The model year, class of diesel engine, and emission application determination for your engine are identified on the
Emission Control Information Label. This label is affixed to one of the following areas of the engine: the top of en-
gine's rocker arm cover, the right-hand side of the oil pan, and the right-hand side of the engine front gear cover.
The warranty period begins on the date the new equipment is sold to the first retail purchaser. The presence of the
emission control label is the indication that the engine conforms to the applicable standards. Any emission control
system parts which are proven defective during normal use will be repaired or replaced during the warranty period.
The engine owner has responsibility to perform all the required maintenance listed in the Owner's Manual. CASE
CONSTRUCTION will not deny an emission warranty claim solely because no record of maintenance exists; however,
a claim may be denied if failure to perform maintenance resulted in the failure of a warranted part
It is recommended that replacement parts used for maintenance or repairs be CASE CONSTRUCTION Service Parts
to maintain the quality originally designed into your emission certified engine. The use of non- CASE CONSTRUC-
TION parts does not invalidate the warranty on other components unless the use of such parts causes damage to
warranted parts.
The manufacturer is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the failure of any warranted emission
control system part. CASE CONSTRUCTION is not responsible for failures resulting from improper repair or the use
of parts that are not genuine CASE CONSTRUCTION or CASE CONSTRUCTION approved parts.
Component coverage
New engines certified for sale and registered will have the following items covered by the emission warranty, depend-
ing on the emission level of the engine, if the items were first installed on the new engine as original equipment:
Fuel injection system Exhaust after treatment Devices (if applicable)
• Fuel injection pump • Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC)
• Fuel injectors • Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
• Fuel injection lines • Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
Air induction system • Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) tank and dispensing sys-
tems
• Intake manifold

When operating the machine in severe winter climates, and stopping for a while the normal operation (e.g. engine
at low idle speed and any control activation) an automatic thawing procedure for DEF/AdBlue® is carried out by the
machine control system in order to avoid freezing of the fluid. The DEF/AdBlue® anti freezing icon is displayed as
this procedure is active.
DEF/AdBlue® is being thawed.
Resuming normal operation, the DEF/AdBlue® anti freezing procedure and the related icon will quickly disappear.
