How to drain the cooling system
Warning! Do not drain the coolant while the engine is still hot and the system is under pressure because
dangerous coolant can be discharged.
1 Ensure that the machine is on level ground.
2 Remove the filler cap of the cooling system.
3 Remove the drain plug from the side of the cylinder block (A) in order to drain the engine. Ensure that the
drain hole is not restricted.
4 Open the tap or remove the drain plug at the bottom of the radiator in order to drain the radiator. If the radiator
does not have a tap or drain plug, disconnect the hose at the bottom of the radiator.
5 If necessary, flush the system with clean water.
6 Fit the drain plugs and the filler cap. Close the radiator tap or connect the radiator hose.
