Maintenance and Adjustment
Note:
• If the coolant level is being
checked because the coolant has
overheated, also check the level in
the radiator and top off if
necessary.
• In an emergency, distilled water
can be added to the cooling
system. However, the coolant
must then be drained and
replenished with HD4X
Hybrid OAT coolant as soon as
possible.
Refit the final drive belt cover as follows:
Align the cover to the crankcase. Install and
tighten the four screws to 80 lbf in (9 Nm).
Coolant Change
Have the coolant changed by an authorized
Triumph dealer in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements.
Radiator and Hoses
Check the radiator hoses for cracks or
deterioration, and hose clips for tightness in
accordance with scheduled maintenance
requirements. Have your authorized Triumph
dealer replace any defective items.
1. Radiator grille
2. Radiator fins
Check the radiator grille and fins for
obstructions by insects, leaves or mud. Clean
off any obstructions with a stream of
low-pressure water.
If hard water is used in the cooling system,
it will cause scale accumulation in the
engine and radiator and considerably
reduce the efficiency of the cooling system.
Reduced cooling system efficiency may
cause the engine to overheat and suffer
severe damage.
