Cooling system

CAUTION
Burn hazard!
Take care if removing the filler cap while the system is hot. Before removing the cap: completely cover
the cap using a thick cloth, and slowly open the filler cap to allow the pressure to escape. Do not add
cold water to a hot coolant reservoir.
Failure to comply could result in minor or moderate injury.

EXTERNAL - Rinse thoroughly with water. Remove soiled clothing.

Coolant solution
Put only ethylene-glycol coolant solution in the cooling system. Use good quality ethylene-glycol that has a high
boiling point, with no additives to prevent leakage. Do not use non-approved anti-rust additives. Anti-rust additives
and ethylene-glycol can mix and work against each other, thereby reducing anti-corrosion protection, forming deposits
in the cooling system and causing damage to the cooling system and radiator.
Consult your CASE CONSTRUCTION Dealer who will supply you with the suitable coolant.
Level
The level of coolant solution should be checked when the
engine is cold.
On flat, level ground, before using the machine (while the
engine is still cold), the level in the expansion reservoir
should be between the "Full" (1) and "Low" (2) marks.
If not, see "Filling".
