Yanmar Limited Warranty - Continued

Warranty Limitations: 

The foregoing is Yanmar’s only obligation to you and your exclusive remedy for breach of 
warranty. Failure to follow the requirements for submitting a claim under this Warranty may result in a 
waiver of all claims for damages and other relief. In no event shall Yanmar or any authorized 
industrial engine dealer or distributor be liable for incidental, special or consequential damages. 
Such consequential damages may include, but not be limited to, loss of revenue, loan payments, cost of 
rental of substitute equipment, insurance coverage, storage, lodging, transportation, fuel, mileage and 
telephone costs. The limitations in this Warranty apply regardless of whether your claims are based on 
breach of contract, tort (including negligence and strict liability) or any other theory. Any action arising 
hereunder must be brought within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues or it shall be barred. 
Some states and countries do not allow certain limitations on warranties or for breach of warranties. This 
Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from 
state to state and country to country. Limitations set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to the 
extent that they are prohibited by law.

Warranty Modifications: 

Except as modified in writing and signed by the parties, this Warranty is and shall remain the complete 
and exclusive agreement between the parties with respect to warranties, superseding all prior 
agreements, written and oral, and all other communications between the parties relating to warranties. 
No person or entity is authorized to give any other warranty or to assume any other obligation on 
behalf of Yanmar, either orally or in writing.

Limited Emission Control System Warranty - USA Only - Continued

Warranty Coverage:

This warranty is transferable to each subsequent purchaser for the duration of the warranty period. 
Repair or replacement of any warranted part will be performed at an authorized Yanmar industrail engine 
dealer or distributor.

Warranted parts not scheduled for replacement as required maintenance in the Operation Manual shall 
be warranted for the warranty period. Warranted parts scheduled for replacement as required 
maintenance in the owner’s manual are warranted for the period of time prior to the first scheduled 
replacement. Any part repaired or replaced under warranty shall be warranted for the remaining warranty 
period.

During the warranty period, Yanmar is liable for damages to other engine components caused by the 
failure of any warranted part during the warranty period.

Any replacement part which is functionally identical to the original equipment part in all respects may be 
used in the maintenance or repair of your engine, and shall not reduce Yanmar’s warranty obligations. 
Add-on or modified parts that are not exempted may not be used. The use of any non-exempted add-on 
or modified parts shall be grounds for disallowing a warranty.

Warranted Parts:

This warranty covers engine components that are a part of the emission control system of the engine as 
delivered by Yanmar to the original retail purchaser. Such components may include the following:

• Fuel Injection System

• Cold Start Enrichment System

• Intake Manifold

• Turbocharger Systems

• Exhaust Manifold

• Positive Crankcase Ventilation System

• Hoses, belts, connectors and assemblies associated with emission control systems

Since emissions related parts may vary slightly between models, certain models may not contain all of 
these parts and other models may contain the functional equivalents.

Limited Emission Control System Warranty - USA Only - Continued

Exclusions:

Failures other than those arising from defects in 
material and / or workmanship are not covered by 
this warranty. The warranty does not extend to the 
following: malfunctions caused by abuse, misuse, 
improper adjustment, modification, alteration, 
tampering, disconnection, improper or 
inadequate maintenance or use of non-
recommended fuels and lubricating oils; accident-
caused damage, and replacement of expendable 
items made in connection with scheduled 
maintenance. Yanmar disclaims any responsibility 
for incidental or consequential damages such as 
loss of time, inconvenience, loss of use of 
equipment / engine or commercial loss.

Owner’s Warranty Responsibilities:

As the engine owner, you are responsible for 
the performance of the required maintenance 
listed in your owner’s manual. Yanmar 
recommends that you retain all documentation, 
including receipts, covering maintenance on your 
non-road compression-ignition engine, but 
Yanmar cannot deny warranty solely for the lack 
of receipts, or for your failure to ensure the 
performance of all scheduled maintenance.

Yanmar may deny your warranty coverage of your 
non-road compression-ignition engine if a part 
has failed due to abuse, neglect, improper 
maintenance or unapproved modifications.

Your engine is designed to operate on diesel fuel 
only. Use of any other fuel may result in your 
engine no longer operating in compliance with 
applicable emissions requirements.

You are responsible for initiating the warranty 
process. You must present your engine to a 
Yanmar dealer as soon as a problem exists. The 
warranty repairs should be completed by the 
dealer as expeditiously as possible. If you have 
any questions regarding your warranty rights and 
responsibilities, or would like information on the 
nearest Yanmar dealer or authorized service 
center, you should contact Yanmar America 
Corporation at 1-800-872-2867.
