CAUTION
A sudden loss of pressure can cause hot coolant to boil and discharge
violently resulting in serious injury from burns. Allow the engine to cool down
before removing the coolant pressure cap.
IMPORTANT: When filling the coolant section after it has been completely
drained, the engine should be level or slightly lower at the flywheel end.
1. Remove the pressure cap from the coolant reservoir.
2. Fill the reservoir to the full mark with the recommended coolant solution.
3. When refilling the coolant section after it has been completely drained, fill
the reservoir to within 12 mm (0.50 in.) of the top of the reservoir neck
before starting the engine.
4. Replace the pressure cap.
NOTICE
Without sufficient cooling water, the engine, the water pump, and other
components will overheat and suffer damage. Provide a sufficient supply of
water to the water inlets during operation.
5. Supply cooling water to the engine.
