MAINTENANCE 9VX3
12. Maintain the coolant level to the fill port neck.
13. Replace the cap gasket if the gasket is damaged. Install the
radiator cap (D.
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 Ratio of Long-Life-Coolant
The mixing rate 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 30%, occurrence of rust is feared
and when it is over 50%, overheating is feared and sealing
components may be deteriorated quicker than usual.
Meanwhile, use city water to mix with Long-Life-Coolant.
