- Damage resulting from an accident or an Act of God.
- Failures that are a direct result of a lack of performance of required emission control maintenance as outlined in your Owner’s Manual.
- Parts or accessories used in applications for which they were not designed or not approved for use on the engine by Daedong-USA INC.
- Parts not supplied by Daedong-USA INC. or damage to other parts caused directly by non-Daedong parts or non-equivalent parts.
- The charge for diagnostic labor which does not lead to the determination that a warrantable condition exists.
- Daedong-USA INC. is not responsible for incidental or consequential damages such as downtime or loss-use of engine powered equipment.
- Although you purchase the equipment on which Daedong engine is mounted, if the equipment is not manufactured by Daedong, you should make contact with purchasing dealer.
Emergency Service
If emergency Emission Control System Warranty service is required and the owner is unable to readily locate an authorized Daedong dealer or if a warranted part is available within 30
days, then, repairs may be performed at any available service establishment, or by the owner, using any replacement part.
Daedong will reimburse the owner for the owner’s expenses including diagnostic charges for such emergency repair or replacement at Daedong’s suggested retail price for all war-
ranted parts replaced and labor charges based on Daedong’s recommended time allowance for the warranty repair and the geographically appropriate hourly labor rate. Replaced part
and copies of paid original receipts must be available for presentation to Daedong as a condition of reimbursement for these emergency repairs.
In addition, the owner must provide Daedong a detailed description indicating why the situation was considered an emergency and why an authorized Daedong dealer was not avail-
able. Additional information may be obtained by calling 1-919-374-5100. A repair not being complete within 30 days constitutes an emergency.

Off-Road Compression-Ignition Engine
Emission Control System Warranty Statement
(Daedong Warranty Statement Page 2 of 2)
The California Air Resources Board and Daedong-USA, INC. are pleased to explain the emission control system warranty on your 2003 and later engine. In California, new off-road
engines must be designed, built, and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. Daedong-USA, INC. must warrant the emission control system on your engine for
the periods of time listed below provided there has been no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your engine.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the fuel-injection system and the air induction system. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors and other emission-
related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Daedong-USA, INC. will repair your off-road compression ignition engine at no cost to you including diagnosis, parts, and labor.
MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATION
Some Daedong-USA, INC off-road compression ignition engines are certified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resource Board to comply
with smoke and gaseous emission standards prescribed by federal laws at the time of maintenance.
The engine is certified if it has a special certification label. A Daedong engine dealer can also inform you if the engine is certified.
Efficiency of emission control and engine performance depends on adherence to proper operation and maintenance recommendations and use of recommended fuels and lubricating
oils. It is recommended that major adjustments and repair be made by your authorized Daedong engine dealer.
Various chemical fuel additives, which claim to reduce visible smoke, are available commercially. Although additives have been used by individuals to solve some isolated smoke
problems in the field, they are not recommended for general use. Federal smoke regulations require that engines be certified without smoke depressants.
The corrective step taken immediately on discovery of worn parts, which may affect emission levels, will help assure proper operation of emission control system. The use of genuine
Daedong parts recommended. Suppliers of non-Daedong parts must assure the owner that the use of such parts will not adversely affect emission levels.
Regular maintenance intervals, along with special emphasis on the following items, are necessary to keep exhaust emissions within acceptable limit for the useful life of the engine
Refer to the maintenance intervals. If the engine is operation under severe conditions, adjust the maintenance exhaust emissions within acceptable limit for the useful life of the engine.
The following is an explanation of maintenance for emission-related components. See the Maintenance schedule for specific interval for the following items.
FUEL INJECTION PUMP OR NOZZLES - Fuel injection pumps or nozzles are subject to tip wear as a result to fuel contamination. This damage can cause an increase in fuel con-
sumption, the engine to emit black smoke misfire or run rough. Inspect, test, and replace if necessary. Fuel injection pumps can be tested by an authorized Daedong engine dealer.
TURBOCHARGER - Check for any unusual sound or vibration in the turbocharger. Inspect inlet and exhaust piping and connections. Check bearing condition and perform mainte-
nance as described in the Maintenance Schedule.
Slow engine response and low power may indicate a need for adjustment or repair. Your Daedong engine dealer is equipped with the necessary tools, personnel, and perform this
service.
Owner is encouraged to keep adequate maintenance records, but the absence of such, in and of itself, will not invalidate the warranty.
The machine or equipment owner may perform routine maintenance, repairs and other non-warranty work or have it done at any repair facility. Such non-warranty work need not be
performed at a designated warranty station in order for the warranty to remain in force.
