COOLING SYSTEM
CVT DRYING
NOTE: If operating the vehicle through water, be sure
to check the CVT and other components for water
ingestion. The vehicle should be checked
immediately.
There may be some instances when water is accidentally
ingested into the CVT system. Use the following instructions to
dry it out before operating. The drain plug is located on the
bottom of the CVT cover.
1. Remove the drain plug located under the CVT housing.
Allow the water to drain. Reinstall the drain plug.
2. Shift the transmission into neutral.
3. Start the engine. Apply varying throttle for 10-15 seconds to
expel the moisture and air-dry the belt and clutches. Do not
hold the throttle wide open for more than 3 - 4 seconds.
4. Allow the engine RPM to settle to an idle speed.
5. Test for belt slippage. If the belt slips, repeat the process.
Exposure to salt water will cause corrosion to metal
components. If the vehicle is operated in salt-water
areas, rinse it off frequently with fresh water.
COOLING SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The engine coolant level is controlled, or maintained, by the
recovery system. The recovery system components are the
recovery 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 recovery 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 often during the break-in
period.
NOTE: Overheating of engine could occur if air is not
fully purged from system.
Fill premixed and ready to use antifreeze coolant. Do not dilute
with water.
COOLANT LEVEL INSPECTION
The pressure cap and recovery bottle are located under the front
cab of the vehicle. The coolant level must be maintained between
the minimum and maximum levels indicated on the recovery
bottle.
