Draining Coolant

 WARNING

To avoid personal injury or death:

• Do not remove radiator cap while coolant is hot. When cool,

slowly rotate cap to the first stop and allow sufficient time
for excess pressure to escape before removing the cap
completely.

1. Stop the engine, remove the key and let it cool down.

2. To drain the coolant, open the radiator drain plug and remove

radiator cap. The radiator cap must be removed to completely

drain the coolant.

3. After all coolant is drained, reinstall the drain plug.

(When refilling)

• Fill with clean water and anti-freeze until the coolant level is just

below the port. Install the radiator cap securely.

• Fill with coolant up to 

"FULL"

 mark on the recovery tank.

• Start and operate the engine for few minutes.

• Stop the engine and let cool. Check coolant level of recovery

tank and add coolant if necessary.

IMPORTANT

• Do not start engine without coolant.
• Use clean, fresh soft water and anti-freeze to fill the radiator

and recovery tank.

• When mixing the anti-freeze with water, the anti-freeze

mixing ratio is 50 %.

• Securely tighten radiator cap. If the cap is loose or

improperly fitted, water may leak out and the engine could
overheat.

• Refer to "4. LUBRICANTS, FUEL AND COOLANT" on page

G-9.
NOTE

• On cab type machines, coolant circulates through the

heater. This means that one more liter or so of coolant is
required.
In changing coolant, pour coolant up to the filler port of the
recovery tank. Turn ON the heater (shift the temperature
control lever toward WARM), and run the engine for a while
in order to warm coolant. Then stop the engine.
When coolant has cooled down, some of the coolant in the
recovery tank is sucked. Now the recovery tank is
appropriately filled with coolant.
