■ Check the Cooling System
1. Park the tractor safely and securely.
• For details, see "7. Safe Practices for Parking the
Tractor" on page 1-7.
2. Shut off the engine.
3. Chock all the tires safely and securely.
4. Allow the engine to cool down for several
minutes.
5. Raise the hood.
6. Check the coolant level of the reserve tank:
• If the engine is warm, the coolant level must be
between the full line and the low line.
• If the engine is cold, the coolant level must be at
the low line on the reserve tank.
7. When necessary, remove the reserve tank cap
and add coolant.
8. Add a pre-diluted coolant with an antifreeze water
ratio that suits the local climate.
• Contact YOUR LOCAL YANMAR TRACTOR
DEALER for more details.
• Use High Quality Permanent Type Antifreeze
(Ethylene Glycol with corrosion and rust inhibitor
chemicals).
9. Install the reserve tank cap.

Avoid injury!
● Before checking always allow the radiator to
cool down:
• the radiator is hot and can cause burns
• the build up pressure in the cooling system
can cause the coolant to spray out
explosively during removal of the radiator
cap
● Always shut off the engine.
● Allow the engine to cool down.
● Remove the radiator cap only when:
• the radiator and the engine are sufficiently
cooled down that can be touched with bare
hands
● When removing the radiator cap, always:
• loosen the radiator cap to the first stop
• the preceding action releases excessive
pressure on the radiator
• fully remove the radiator cap once the
pressure has been released completely
● Add coolant or water to reserve tank, not to
the radiator.
