Avoid Static Electricity Risk When Refueling

The removal of sulfur and other compounds in Ultra-Low
Sulfur Diesel (ULSD) fuel decreases its conductivity and
increases its ability to store a static charge.
Refineries may have treated the fuel with a static
RG22142 —UN—17MAR14
dissipating additive. However, there are many factors that
can reduce the effectiveness of the additive over time.
Static charges can build up in ULSD fuel while it is flowing
through fuel delivery systems. Static electricity discharge
when combustible vapors are present could result in a
fire or explosion.
Therefore, it is important to ensure that the entire system
used to refuel your machine (fuel supply tank, transfer
pump, transfer hose, nozzle, and others) is properly
grounded and bonded. Consult with your fuel or fuel
system supplier to ensure that the delivery system is in
compliance with fueling standards for proper grounding

Coolant analysis means taking a series of coolant samples at 1000
hour increments beyond the normal service interval until either
the data indicate the end of useful coolant life or the maximum
service interval of Cool-Gard II is reached.

All water used in the cooling system should meet the Propylene Glycol Freeze Protection Limit
following minimum specifications for quality: 40% -21°C (-6°F)
Chlorides <40 mg/L 50% -33°C (-27°F)
Sulfates <100 mg/L 60% -49°C (-56°F)

Testing Coolant Freeze Point

The use of a handheld coolant refractometer is the
quickest, easiest, and most accurate method to determine
coolant freeze point. This method is more accurate than
a test strip or a float-type hydrometer which can produce
poor results.
TS1732 —UN—04SEP13
A coolant refractometer is available through your
John Deere dealer under the SERVICEGARD™ tool
program. Part number 75240 provides an economical
solution to accurate freeze point determination in the field.
To use this tool:
SERVICEGARD™ Part Number 75240
1. Allow cooling system to cool to ambient temperatures.
2. Open radiator cap to expose coolant.
3. With the included dropper, collect a small coolant
sample.
4. Open the lid of the refractometer, place one drop of
coolant on the window and close the lid.
5. Look through the eyepiece and focus as necessary.
6. Record the listed freeze point for the type of coolant
(ethylene glycol coolant or propylene glycol) being
tested.

Disposing of Coolant
Improperly disposing of engine coolant can threaten the
environment and ecology.
Use leakproof containers when draining fluids. Do not use
food or beverage containers that may mislead someone
into drinking from them. TS1133 —UN—15APR13
Do not pour waste onto the ground, down a drain, or into

any water source.
Inquire on the proper way to recycle or dispose of waste
from your local environmental or recycling center, or from
your John Deere engine distributor or servicing dealer. Recycle Waste

The engine is ready for normal operation. However, extra
care during the first 100 hours of operation will result in
more satisfactory long-term engine performance and life.
DO NOT exceed 100 hours of operation with break-in oil.
1. This engine is factory-filled with John Deere ENGINE
RG13719 —UN—11NOV04
BREAK-IN OIL (SAE 10W-30). Operate the engine at
heavy loads with minimal idling during the break-in
period.
2. If the engine has significant operating time at idle,
constant speeds, and/or light load usage, or makeup
oil is required in the first 100 hour period, a longer
break-in period may be required. In these situations, an Check Engine Oil
additional 100 hour break-in period is recommended
using a new change of John Deere ENGINE
BREAK-IN OIL and a new John Deere oil filter.

Checking Air Compressors (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.

• Non-performance of maintenance requirements listed in the Operator’s Manual

• The use of the engine/equipment in a manner for which it was not designed
• Abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications or alterations
• Accidents for which it does not have responsibility or by acts of God
The off-road diesel engine is designed to operate on diesel fuel as specified in the Fuels, Lubricants and Coolants section in the Operators Manual.

CALIFORNIA EMISSIONS CONTROL WARRANTY STATEMENT:
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is pleased to explain the emission-control system warranty on 2016 through 2018 off-road diesel
engines. In California, new off-road engines must be designed, built and equipped to meet the State’s stringent anti-smog standards. John Deere
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.
John Deere warrants to the ultimate purchaser and each subsequent purchaser that this off-road diesel engine was designed, built, and equipped
so as to conform at the time of sale with all applicable regulations adopted by CARB and is free from defects in materials and workmanship which
would cause the failure of a warranted part to be identical in all material respects to the part as described in John Deere's application for certification
for a period of five years from the date the engine is delivered to an ultimate purchaser or 3,000 hours of operation, whichever occurs first for all
engines rated at 19 kW and greater. In the absence of a device to measure hours of use, the engine shall be warranted for a period of five years.
EMISSIONS WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS:
John Deere may deny warranty claims for failures caused by the use of an add-on or modified part which has not been exempted by the CARB. A
modified part is an aftermarket part intended to replace an original emission-related part which is not functionally identical in all respects and which
in any way affects emissions. An add-on part is any aftermarket part which is not a modified part or a replacement part.
In no event will John Deere, any authorized engine distributor, dealer, or repair facility, or any company affiliated with John Deere be liable
for incidental or consequential damage.
