MAINTENANCE

To adjust the coolant level:
▼
Allow the engine to cool.
▼ The expansion tank cap can be
removed from the left hand side of
the motorcycle.
▼ Remove the cap from the expansion
tank and add coolant mixture
through the filler opening until the
level reaches the MAX mark. Reinstall
the cap.
Note
If the coolant level is being checked
because the coolant has overheated,
also check the level in the radiator and
top off if necessary.
In an emergency, distilled water can be
added to the cooling system. However,
the coolant must then be drained and
replenished with HD4X Hybrid OAT
coolant as soon as possible.
Coolant Change
It is recommended that the coolant is
changed by an authorized Triumph
dealer in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements.
Radiator and Hoses
Warning
The fan operates automatically when
the engine is running.
Always keep hands and clothing away
from the fan.
Contact with the rotating fan may
cause an accident and/or personal
injury.
Caution
Using high pressure water sprays,
such as from a car wash facility or
household
pressure washer, can
damage the radiator fins, cause leaks
and impair the radiator's efficiency.
Do not obstruct or deflect airflow
through the radiator by installing
unauthorized accessories, either in
front of the radiator or behind the
cooling fan.
Interference with the radiator airflow
can cause overheating, potentially
resulting in engine damage.
Check the radiator hoses for cracks or
deterioration, and tension clips for
tightness in accordance with scheduled
maintenance requirements. Have your
authorized Triumph dealer replace any
defective items.
Check the radiator grille and fins for
obstructions by insects, leaves or mud.
Clean off any obstructions with a
stream of low pressure water.
