ENGINE COOLANT ________________________________________________________
Check coolant level each day. The radiator must be full and the recovery bottle must be at the cold mark.
Drain and fill the cooling system each year. Empty and clean the recovery bottle.
Mix clean water with anti-freeze for the coldest ambient temperature. Read and follow the instructions on the anti-
freeze container and the Engine manual.
Keep the radiator, engine oil cooler and hydraulic oil cooler air passages clean. Do not use compressed air to clean the
fins. Only use low pressure water to clean radiator.
Check and tighten the engine fan belt (see maintenance chart) and replace the belt (see maintenance chart). Replace
the clamps and hoses (see maintenance chart).
Have your Jacobsen Dealer check the cooling system if you need to add coolant more than one time a month or you
add more than a liter of coolant at a time.
WARNING
To prevent injury from the hot-engine coolant or steam, never remove the radiator cap with the engine in
operation. Stop the engine and wait until the radiator is cool. When radiator is cool, use caution to remove the
radiator cap.
CAUTION
Do not put cold coolant mixture into a hot radiator. Do not operate the engine without a correct coolant
mixture. Install the radiator cap correctly.
CAUTION
Stop engine & remove the starter key before pressure washing. Do not use a pressure washer near the
instrument panel or engine radiator to prevent damage.
