4. Check the coolant level in the radiator and in the
expansion tank.
Note:
The radiator should be filled to the top of
the filler neck and the expansion tank filled to
the Full mark on the tank (
Figure 82 ).
5. If the coolant level is low, remove the
expansion-tank cap and the radiator cap, and
fill the expansion tank to the Full mark and the
radiator to the top of the filler neck (
Figure 82 ).
Important:
Do not overfill the expansion
tank.
Important:
Do not use water only or an
alcohol/methanol-based coolant.
6. Install the radiator cap and the expansion-tank
cap (
Figure 82 ).
Changing the Cooling-System
Fluid
Service Interval: Every 400 hours/Yearly (whichever
comes first)—Check the coolant (as
directed by the manufacturer) and
change if necessary.
1. Position the sprayer on a level surface, set the
parking brake, stop the pump, stop the engine,
and remove the key from the starter switch.
2. When the engine is cool, remove the radiator
cap (
Figure 82 ).
3. Place a large drain pan under the radiator.
4. Open the drain valve and drain the coolant into
the pan (
Figure 83 ).

5. Close the drain valve ( Figure 83 ).
6. Remove the radiator cap ( Figure 82 ).
7. Slowly fill the radiator with coolant to
approximately 2.5 cm (1 inch) below the sealing
surface of the cap.
Note:
Use enough coolant to fill the engine
and the system lines. This allows the coolant to
expand without it overflowing while the engine
is warming up.
8. Start the engine with the cap loosely on the
radiator (
Figure 82 ).
9. Allow the engine to warm up until the thermostat
opens.
Note:
This usually occurs between 79° to 88°C
(175° to 190°F).
10. Once the coolant has warmed up, top off the
coolant level to the sealing surface of the cap
and tighten the cap (
Figure 82 ).
11. Open the expansion-tank cap and fill the tank
with coolant to the Cold level (
Figure 82 ).
12. Check the coolant levels after several engine
startup and shut-down cycles.
Note:
Add coolant to the radiator and expansion
tank as needed.
