CAUTION
To avoid personal injury:
• Be sure to stop the engine and remove the key
before cleaning.
IMPORTANT:
• The air intake area must be clear of debris to prevent
the engine from overheating.

the radiator screen and radiator core are clean.
Dirt or chaff on the radiator screen or radiator core
decrease cooling performance.

remove all foreign material.
2. Remove the dust from between the fins and the tube.
3. Tighten the fan drive belt as necessary. For this, refer
to "EVERY 100 HOURS" in Maintenance section.
4. If scale forms in the tube, clean with the scale inhibitor
or its equivalent.
5. Each time the panel screen is covered with grass
during operation, rub it off the screen with the hand.
Check the radiator screen from time to time if grass
accumulates.
6. If the dust or chaff has accumulated inside the panel,
remove the radiator screen and the panel screen, and
clean inside completely.
