[8] CHECK POINT OF EVERY 500 HOURS

Cleaning of Water Jacket and Radiator Interior
CAUTION
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
Then loosen cap slightly to the stop to relieve any excess
pressure before removing cap completely.
1. Stop the engine and let cool down.
2. To drain the coolant, open the water drain plug (1), and remove
radiator cap (2). The radiator cap must be removed to
completely drain the coolant.
3. After all coolant is drained, close the water drain plug (1).
4. Fill with clean water and cooling system cleaner.
5. Follow directions of the cleaner instruction.
6. After flushing, fill with clean water and anti-freeze until the
coolant level is just below the port.
Install the radiator cap securely.
7. Fill with coolant up to "FULL" mark on the recovery tank (3).
8. Start and operate the engine for few minutes.
9. Stop the engine, remove the key and let cool.
10. Check coolant level of recovery tank (3) and add coolant if
necessary.
IMPORTANT
• Do not start engine without coolant.
• Use clean, fresh water and anti-freeze to fill the radiator.
• When the anti-freeze is mixed with water, the anti-freeze
mixing ratio must be less than 50 %.
• Securely tighten radiator cap. If the cap is loose or
improperly fitted, water may leak out and the engine could
overheat.
