4.1 Maintaining the Emission Control System
For machines sold in North America:
Normal maintenance, replacement, or repair of emission control devices and
systems may be performed by any repair establishment or individual; however,
warranty repairs must be performed by a dealer/service center authorized by
Wacker Neuson. The use of service parts that are not equivalent in performance
and durability to authorized parts may impair the effectiveness of the emission
control system and may have a bearing on the outcome of a warranty claim.
