Radiator hoses should be replaced if worn or frayed.
(See Section 7, Illustrated Parts List (IPL) for hose
and component replacement part numbers.) Access
the radiator from the top engine access panel.
NOTE: Inspect the radiator and oil coolers daily. If
needed, wash out using a low-pressure water
hose once the engine has cooled down.
Dirty or plugged radiators and oil
coolers will cause engine or hydraulic overheat
conditions.
This procedure should only be
performed when the machine is not running.

serious injury can occur if removed while hot.
