LIFT ARM SUPPORT DEVICE


Description

WARNING
Never work on a machine with the lift arms up unless
the lift arms are secured by an approved lift arm
support device. Failure to use an approved lift arm
support device can allow the lift arms or attachment
to fall and cause injury or death.

Service lift arm support device if damaged or if parts


are missing. Using a damaged lift arm support or
with missing parts can cause lift arms to drop
causing injury or death.

California’s stringent anti-smog standards adopted by the Air Resources Board pursuant to its authority in Chapter 1 and 2, Part 5, Division 26 of the t he California Health
and Safety Code. In other states of the U.S.A., new non-road engines subject to the provisions of 40 CFR 1039 subpart A must be designed, built and equipped, at the
time of sale, to meet the U.S. EPA regulations for nonroad engines.
KUBOTA must warrant the emission control system on your Compression Ignition engine for the period of time listed below provided there has been no abuse,
vandalism, neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved modifications to your engine. This emission warranty is applicable in all states of the U.S.A., its provinces and
territories regardless of whether an individual state, province, or territory has enacted warranty provisions that differ from the Federal warranty provisions. This emission
warranty is also applicable in all provinces and territories of CANADA. 
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, KUBOTA will repair your engine at no cost to you, including diagnosis (if the diagnostic work is performed at an authorized dealer),
parts and labor.

mentioned below.
The emissions warranty period for all engines rated under 19kW (25Hp) is 2000 hours of operation or two (2) years of use, whichever first occurs.
