MAINTENANCE
• Coolant is toxic. When opening the drain valve, be careful not to get coolant on you. If it gets in
your eyes, flush your eyes with large amount of fresh water and see a doctor immediately.
• When handling the cooling water containing coolant that has been drained during changing the
coolant or repairing the radiator, contact your Komatsu distributor or request a qualified company
to perform the operation. Coolant is toxic, so never pour it into drainage ditches or drain it onto the
ground surface.
Non-Amine Engine Coolant (AF-NAC) is already diluted with distilled water, so it is not flammable.
Check the density with a coolant tester.
