COOLING SYSTEM
Air bleeding steps:
NOTE:
For models other than FX10MT/FX10MTR/
FX10MTRA, skip steps 1–3.
• Remove the cap 1 on the heat exchanger pipe.
• While slowly adding coolant to the radiator filler,
drain the coolant until no more air bubbles
appear.
• Install the cap 1.
• Add coolant to the full level a.
• Install the radiator cap.
Apply and lock the parking brake. Start the
engine and run it at less than the clutch engage-
ment speed until the coolant circulates (approxi-
mately 3 ~ 5 minutes). The heat exchanger will
be warm to the touch (FX10MT/FX10MTR/
FX10MTRA).

WARNING
To avoid severe injury or death:
• Make sure the snowmobile is securely sup-
ported with a suitable stand.
• Do not exceed the clutch engagement speed.
Drive line damage and excessive V-belt wear
could occur, or the snowmobile could unex-
pectedly move forward if the clutch engages.
• Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated
area.
• Remove the radiator cap and bleed the cooling
system again, as described above.
No air bubbles → OK.
• Check the coolant level in the coolant reservoir
when the engine is cold. If the coolant level is
below the “LOW” mark b, add coolant until it
reaches the “FULL” mark c.
