25-6-3. Checking and cleaning the radiator fin
1) Open the engine hood (1).
2) Remove the side cover R (2).
3) Clean off any mud, dirt or leaves clogged in the radiator
fin (3) by blowing compressed air or by flushing with
steam.
IMPORTANT
• Always blow the compressed air away from the fin to
prevent damage to the fin.
• A damaged fin will cause water leakage and over-
heating.
4) Check that the radiator fin (3) is straight and that all the
dirt has been removed completely.
5) Reinstall the side cover R (2).
6) Close the engine hood (1).
• Never attempt to check and clean the radiator fin
while the engine is running.
Always stop the engine and allow it to cool first,
before checking and cleaning it.
• Compressed air can cause bodily injury since
the objects around the radiator fin may scatter.
• Whenever using compressed air for cleaning,
check that there are no other persons nearby,
and always wear safety goggles and protective
clothing and shoes.
• The maximum compressed air pressure should
be less than 100 PSI (0.7 MPa) for cleaning pur-
poses.
