Cleaning of Oil Cooler
Caution
An unclean oil cooler may cause overheating
or damage to the engine.
It may also cause malfunction of the hydraulic
system.
Important
Do not use solid objects, such as a spatula or
screwdriver, or high-pressure water to clean
the radiator or oil cooler.
Otherwise, special fins or tubes may be
damaged, possibly resulting in reduced
cooling performance or coolant leakage.
If the oil cooler has been contaminated with
dust, be sure to clean it.
Especially after operating the machine in a
dusty environment, it is important to remove
dust as soon as possible.
Lift up the dust-proof mesh to remove it.
Unlock the rubber catches on the left of the
oil cooler, and then tilt the oil cooler.

Fan, Fan Belt
Inspection of Fan and Fan Belt
Caution
The engine must be stopped when the belt is
inspected.
Caution
If you have removed the cover during
inspection and maintenance, make sure that
you replace it in the original position securely.
If the cover remains removed, the operator
may come in contact with the rotating objects
or belt, possibly resulting in injuries.
Important
A slacking or damaged belt or damaged fan
may cause overheating or lack of a battery
charge.
Note:
The fan is installed in front of the engine
because the radiator is located behind the
seat.
Inspect the fan belt while the engine is stopped
before starting it.
Follow the steps below to perform the
inspection and repair procedure, according to
the periodic inspection schedule.
Belt
Inspect the belt for cracks or peeling, and
then replace it with a new one if there is
any damage.
Adjust the belt tension so that the belt
slacks by approximately 7.0 - 9.0 mm
(0.28 - 0.35 in) when you press the
middle of the belt with your finger at the
pressure of 98.07 N (10.0 kgf, 22.05 lbf).
