MAINTENANCE
2.
Press down lever (2) and open fan guard (3).
3.
Blow off mud, dirt, leaves, etc. in radiator fins (4) with com-
pressed air.
NOTICE
Steam or water may be used instead of the com-
pressed air.
However, when using the powerful steam cleaning
equipment (high-pressure machine wash) for the heat
exchange equipment (radiator and cooler), keep a suf-
ficient distance to the target machine.
If steam cleaning (high-pressure machine wash) is per-
formed at close distance, there is a danger that the in-
ternal fins of the heat exchange equipment may be de-
formed, and this will cause early clogging and break-
age of the equipment.
4.
Check the rubber hoses. If any hose is cracked or hardened by age, replace with a new one. Also check
and tighten all loose hose clamps.
5.
After cleaning, close fan guard (3) and rear grille (1).

tor (1), oil cooler (2), aftercooler (3), and air conditioner
