MAINTENANCE
12.
Maintain the coolant level to the fill port neck.
13.
Replace the cap gasket if the gasket
is
damaged. Install the
radiator cap
~.
14.
Maintain the coolant level between the MAX and MIN marks
on the reserve tank.
• Clean the Outside of the Radiator Core
When the radiator core
is
clogged, the cooling air flow
is
interrupted lowering the cooling efficiency.
Remove dust or debris from the radiator fins.
Clean the radiator with a pressurized air, high pressure water
or steam at 500 hours interval.
Whenever the radiator
is
found to be closed, clean it at any
time.
• Selection of coolant
Long-Life-Coolant (LLC)
is
supplied to this machine before
shipment.
This
is
a coolant provided with proper ties of Antifreeze,
corrosion-proof and fouling-proof.
Its long lasting effects will maintain the machine free from
coolant exchange for 2 years through summer and winter
seasons.
The Long-Life-Coolant
is
therefore recommended for use
with this machine when exchanging its coolant.
• Mixing Rate of Long-Life-Coolant
The mixing ratio
of
Long-Life-Coolant with water determines
the freezing point.
Select the mixing ratio for a freezing point lower by
5°
than
the expected lowest atmospheric temperature.
Normally, the Long-Life-Coolant
is
used under a mixing ratio
of
30
to 50%.
If the mixing ratio
is
less than
300~,
occurrence of rust
is
feared and when it
is
over
500/0,
overheating
is
feared and
sealing components may be deteriorated quicker than usual.
Meanwhile, use city water to mix with Long-Life-Coolant.
