Clark C500 100 - Engine Starting Procedure; Gasoline and L.P. Gas Starting

Operator's Daily Checklist
5. Always check radiator coolant level with the
engine turned off. When possible with engine
cold. Proper coolant level is one inch below the
bottom of the filler neck.
Never add cold water or cold anti-freeze into
the radiator of an overheated engine. Allow the
engine to cool and avoid the danger of cracking
the cylinder head or block. Keep engine run-
ning while adding water or anti-freeze. A solu-
tion of 50% Ethylene Glycol and 50% water is
recommended. Never use only water.
CAUTION: Use extreme care when removing
radiator pressure cap. The sudden release of
pressure can cause a steam flash resulting in
serious injury. Place a rug over cap and loosen
slowly to allow gradual escape of steam.
