REMARK
If dirt is caught in the radiator fins, blow with compressed air to clean.
In a cold circumstance, perform the cleaning by Fan Reverse Mode within less than 5 minutes.

CLEAN WITH COMPRESSED AIR
If compressed air, high-pressure water, or steam hits your body directly or dirt is scattered by the
compressed air, high-pressure water, or steam, there is a danger of personal injury. Always wear
protective equipment such as protective eyeglasses and dust mask.
When performing cleaning, always stop the engine and check that the fan is not rotating. If you
touch the fan when it is rotating, it will cause serious personal injury or death.

When using compressed air for cleaning, blow it keeping some distance to avoid damaging the fins.
Damage on the fins can cause water leakage and overheating. In a dusty job site, check the fins every
day, regardless of the maintenance interval.
