Cooling System Safety

•
Swallowing engine coolant can cause poisoning;
keep out of reach from children and pets.
•
Discharge of hot, pressurized coolant or touching
a hot radiator and surrounding parts can cause
severe burns.
– Always allow the engine to cool at least 15
minutes before removing the radiator cap.
– Use a rag when opening the radiator cap, and
open the cap slowly to allow steam to escape.
•
Do not operate the machine without the covers
in place.
•
Keep your fingers, hands and clothing clear of
rotating fan and drive belt.

Coolant Specification

A solution of 50% water and 50% permanent ethylene
glycol antifreeze.
Check the engine-coolant concentration as directed
by the coolant manufacturer.

Checking the Coolant Level

Service Interval: Before each use or daily Check the
level of coolant in the radiator and
the expansion tank at the beginning
of each day before starting the
engine.
CAUTION
If the engine has been running, the coolant
may be hot and pressurized. If you open
the radiator cap when the coolant is hot, it
could spray out and severely burn you or
bystanders.
Allow the engine to cool for at least 15
minutes before opening the radiator cap.
Important:
Do not add coolant to an overheated
engine until the engine has fully cooled. Adding
coolant to an overheated engine may crack the
engine block.
1. Position the sprayer on a level surface.
2. Engage the parking brake, shut off the spray
pump, shut off the engine, and remove the key.
3. Carefully remove the radiator cap and the
expansion-tank cap
1. Radiator cap
2. Expansion tank
4. Check the coolant level in the radiator and in the
expansion tank.
Note:
The radiator should be filled to the top of
the filler neck and the expansion tank filled to
the Full mark on the tank
5. If the coolant level is low, remove the
expansion-tank cap and the radiator cap, and
fill the expansion tank to the Full mark and the
radiator to the top of the filler neck
Important:
Do not overfill the expansion
tank.
Important:
Do not use water only or an
alcohol/methanol-based coolant.
6. Install the radiator cap and the expansion-tank
cap (Figure 90).
