5. Adding the LLC
(1) Add only water if the mixture reduces in amount by
evaporation.
(2) If there is a mixture leak, add the LLC of the same
manufacture and type in the same mixture percentage.
*Never add any long-life coolant of different manufacture.
(Different brands may have different additive components, and
the engine may fail to perform as specified.)
6. When the LLC is mixed, do not employ any radiator cleaning
agent. The LLC contains anticorrosive agent. If mixed with
the cleaning agent, sludge may build up, adversely affecting
the engine parts.
7. Kubota's genuine long-life coolant has a service life of 2 years.
Be sure to change the coolant every 2 years.

When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add

%. In case of leakage, add antifreeze and water in the
specified mixing ratio before filling in to the radiator.
