FILLING
THE
COOLING
SYSTEM
Your
radiator
сар
is
of
the
pressure
type
which
reduces
loss
of
the
cooling
solution
through
evaporation.
In
spite
of
this,
some
loss will
occur
and
water
level
should
be
checked
each
time
you
purchase
gasoline.
The
level
of
the
water
should
be
about
1/4"
below
the
bottom
of
the
filler
neck,
for
if
more
is
added
it
will
flow
out
of
the
overflow
vent
after
the
engine
becomes
warm,
which
is
important
when
anti-
freeze
is
used.
Should
your
engine
become
overheated,
never
pour
cold
water
or
antifreeze
into
the
radiator
until
it
cools,
for
by
doing
so,
you
may
crack
the
cylinder
head
or
block.
DRAINING
THE
COOLING
SYSTEM
Two
drain
cocks
are
provided
and
both
must
be
opened
if
you
wish
to
completely
drain
the
cooling
system.

open
the

of

by
the

FAN
BELT
ADJUSTMENT
The
fan
belt
not
only
operates
the
water
pump
and
fan
but
also
the
gen-
erator,
so
it
must
be
correctly
ad-
justed
to
assure
proper
