[2] E3 ENGINE

[Example: Engine Model Name:
WG1605-G/L/N/GL/LN/GLN-E3-XXXX]
The emission controls previously implemented in various
countries to prevent air pollution will be stepped up as Non-Road
Emission Standards continue to change. The timing or applicable
date of the specific Non-Road Emission regulations depends on the
engine displacement and output classification.
Over the past several years, KUBOTA has been supplying SI
engines that comply with regulations in the respective countries
affected by Non-Road Emission regulations. For KUBOTA Engines,
E3 will be the designation that identifies engine models affected by
the next emission phase (See the table below).
When servicing or repairing ###-E3 series engines, use only
replacement parts for that specific E3 engine, designated by the
appropriate E3 KUBOTA Parts List and perform all maintenance
services listed in the appropriate KUBOTA Operator's Manual or in
the appropriate E3 KUBOTA Workshop Manual. Use of incorrect
replacement parts or replacement parts from other emission level
engines (for example: E2 engines), may result in emission levels out
of compliance with the original E3 design and EPA or other
applicable regulations. Please refer to the emission label located on
the engine head cover to identify Engine Displacement and Output
classification and Emission Control Information. E3 engines are
identified with "ET" at the end of the Model designation, on the US
EPA label. Please note: E3 is not marked on the engine.
