Warranty - 45
WARRANTY
b) Any warranted part that is scheduled only for regular inspection to the
effect of “repair or replace as necessary” is warranted as to defects for the
warranty period. Any such part repaired or replaced under the warranty is
warranted for the remaining warranty period.
c) Any warranted part which is scheduled for replacement as required
maintenance is 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 is warranted for the remainder of the period
prior to the first scheduled replacement point for that part.
d) Normal maintenance, replacement or repair of emissions control
devices and systems, which are being done at the customer’s 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.

following:

Warranty is limited solely to the remedying of defects in materials or
workmanship. This warranty does not cover inconvenience or loss of use
of the small off-road engine and equipment or transportation of the
equipment to or from the John Deere Commercial And Consumer
Equipment Retailer. JOHN DEERE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY
OTHER EXPENSE, LOSS, OR DAMAGE, WHETHER DIRECT,

GIVEN BY JOHN DEERE WITH RESPECT TO THE ENGINE AND
EQUIPMENT EXCEPT AS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS
DOCUMENT. ANY EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
IMPLIED BY LAW, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF
MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS
EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO THE EMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM
WARRANTY TERMS SET FORTH IN THIS DOCUMENT.
c) No dealer is authorized to modify this Federal, California and John
Deere Emissions Control System Warranty.
Tire Warranty
John Deere warranty applies for tires available through the John Deere
parts system. For tires not available through the John Deere parts system,
the tire manufacturer’s warranty applicable to your machine may not apply
outside the U.S. (See your John Deere dealer for specific information.)
Limited Battery Warranty
NOTE: Applicable in North America only. For complete machine
warranty, reference a copy of the John Deere warranty statement.
Contact your John Deere dealer to obtain a copy.
TO SECURE WARRANTY SERVICE
The purchaser must request warranty service from a John Deere dealer
authorized to sell John Deere batteries, and present the battery to the
dealer with the top cover plate codes intact.
FREE REPLACEMENT
Any new battery which becomes unserviceable (not merely discharged)
due to defects in material or workmanship within 90 days of purchase will
be replaced free of charge. Installation costs will be covered by warranty if
(1) the unserviceable battery was installed by a John Deere factory or
dealer, (2) failure occurs within 90 days of purchase, and (3) the
replacement battery is installed by a John Deere dealer.
PRO RATA ADJUSTMENT
Any new battery which becomes unserviceable (not merely discharged)
due to defects in material or workmanship more than 90 days after
purchase, but before the expiration of the applicable adjustment period,
will be replaced upon payment of the battery’s current list price less a pro
rata credit for unused months of service. The applicable adjustment period
is determined from the Warranty Code printed at the top of the battery and
chart below. Installation costs are not covered by warranty after 90 days
from the date of purchase.
THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER
A. Breakage of the container, cover, or terminals.
B. Depreciation or damage caused by lack of reasonable and necessary
maintenance or by improper maintenance.
C. Transportation, mailing, or service call charges for warranty service.
LIMITATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND PURCHASER’S
REMEDIES
To the extent permitted by law, neither John Deere nor any company
affiliated with it makes any warranties, representations, or promises as to
the quality, performance or freedom from defect of the products covered
by this warranty. IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE, SHALL BE LIMITED IN DURATION TO THE APPLICABLE
ADJUSTMENT PERIOD SET FORTH HERE. THE PURCHASER’S ONLY
REMEDIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BREACH OR
PERFORMANCE OF ANY WARRANTY ON JOHN DEERE BATTERIES
ARE THOSE SET FORTH HERE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE DEALER,
JOHN DEERE OR ANY COMPANY AFFILIATED WITH JOHN DEERE BE
LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. (Note:
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts
or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages. So
these limitations and exclusions may not apply to you.) This warranty gives
you specific legal rights, and you may also have some rights which vary
from state to state.
NO DEALER WARRANTY
The selling dealer makes no warranty of it’s own and the dealer has no
authority to make any representation or promise on behalf of John Deere,
or to modify the terms or limitations of this warranty in any way.
PRO RATA MONTHS OF ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: If your battery is not labeled with a warranty code, it is a
warranty code “B”.
