MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION

Engine Cooling System

How it Works

The overflow bottle is

located in front of the right

front tire of the machine.

It must be maintained

between the minimum and

maximum levels indicated

on the overflow bottle.
The engine coolant level is

controlled or maintained

by the recovery system.

The recovery system

components are the

overflow bottle, radiator

filler neck, radiator pressure cap and connecting hose.
As coolant operating temperature increases, the expanding (heated)

excess coolant is forced out of the radiator past the pressure cap and

into the overflow bottle. As engine coolant temperature decreases the

contracting (cooled) coolant is drawn back up from the tank past the

pressure cap and into the radiator.
NOTE: Some coolant level drop on new machines is normal as the

system is purging itself of trapped air. Observe coolant levels and

maintain as recommended by adding coolant to the overflow bottle.
