Liquid Cooling System

When filling the cooling system, use pre-mixed Arctic
Cat Antifreeze. While the cooling system is being filled,
air pockets may develop; therefore, run the engine for
five minutes after the initial fill, shut the engine off, and
fill the coolant overflow tank under the seat to the FULL
line.
After operating the ATV for the initial 5-10 minutes, stop
the engine, allow the engine to cool down, and check
the coolant level. Add coolant as necessary.
