Emission control warranty statement
General statement
To retain the dependability, noise and exhaust emission control originally built into all BUKH V8
(further on referred to as BUKH or V8) engines, it is essential that the engines are installed according to
the V8 installation instructions and receive periodic maintenance according to the V8 maintenance
book.
The BUKH V8 engine is categorized as a commercial engine.
Expected useful life of 10 years or 10.000 hours.
See BUKH V8 Maintenance Book for correct service.
The warranty period shall begin:
1. On the date the machine or vessel first is delivered to the first retail purchaser or:
2. If the machine or vessel is placed in service for demonstration purposes prior to sale at retail, on the
date the engine is first placed in service. Maximum demonstration period is 50h.
The emission control systems of your new V8 engine were designed, built and tested using BUKH
genuine parts, accordingly, it is recommended that any replacement parts used for maintenance, repair
or replacement of emission control systems be BUKH genuine parts. The owner may elect to have
maintenance, replacement or repair of the emission control components and systems certified by US
Environmental Protection agency performed by any repair establishment or individual and may elect to
use parts other than BUKH genuine parts for such maintenance, replacement or repair without
invalidating this warranty: the cost of such services or parts, however, will not be covered under the
warranty.
Use of replacement parts which are not of equivalent quality may impair the effectiveness of emission
control systems. If other than BUKH genuine parts are used for maintenance, the owner should obtain
assurance that such parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent to genuine BUKH parts.
However, the use of other than BUKH replacement parts does not invalidate the warranty on other
components unless such parts cause damage to warranted parts.
