KUBOTA ENGINE AMERICA CORPORATION
APPLICATION REVIEW PROCESS: The Kubota Engine America
(KEA) application review process is intended to assist the OEM with en-
gine installation to optimize functionality/performance within the OEM's
equipment in order to maintain durability, customer satisfaction, and
reduce warranty failures and expenses. Kubota cannot anticipate all
potential failures and issues that may occur with the engine or product
in the field during an application review. Therefore, machine durability
testing by the OEM either in a test facility and/or in the field is critical to
further reduce the potential for field failures.
The amount of time spent by KEA on an application review is significant-
ly less than the amount of time spent by the OEM's design engineers on
the application. Because of this, the KEA application review is intended
to identify issues that are within the scope of the application review test-
ing performed and in some cases recommend possible solutions. The
KEA application review should never take the place of proper design
and testing of the finished product by the OEM.
The KEA application review does not in any way express or imply any
additional warranty coverage other than what is stated in Kubota's Lim-
ited Warranty Agreement. Kubota and its subsidiary companies are not
responsible for (including, but not limited to): failures resulting from any
components that are not manufactured by Kubota, misrepresented or
incorrect information provided from an OEM, any changes made without
KEA's knowledge, any decision by the OEM not to follow KEA's rec-
ommendations, or any application related problems or deficiencies that
may arise that were not found by KEA's limited application review or the
OEM's durability testing.
THIS IS THE ONLY EXPRESS WARRANTY ON OUR PRODUCTS
We neither assume nor authorize anyone to assume for us any other ex-
press warranty. The Kubota Distributor/ Dealer has no authority to make
any representation or promise on behalf of Kubota Engine America Cor-
poration or to modify the terms or limitations of this warranty in any way.

how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of inci-
dental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions
may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and

LIMITATIONS ON OUR RESPONSIBILITY WITH RESPECT TO

TRIAL OR AGRICULTURAL PURPOSES.
