Checking Coolant Level
!
CAUTION
A sudden loss of pressure can cause hot coolant to boil and discharge violently resulting in serious injury from burns. Allow
the engine to cool down before removing the coolant pressure cap.
IMPORTANT: Tighten the pressure cap securely.
The coolant level should be at the full mark on the coolant reservoir when the engine is cold.

Filling the Closed Cooling System
IMPORTANT: The engine must be cooled to ambient temperature to correctly perform the following procedure.
NOTICE
Using propylene glycol antifreeze in the closed cooling system can damage the cooling system or the engine. Fill the closed
cooling system with an ethylene glycol antifreeze solution suitable to the lowest temperature to which the engine will be
exposed.
The coolant section of the closed cooling system must be filled with a 50/50 mixture of Extended Life Antifreeze/Coolant and
distilled water.

Capacity Fluid Type
Closed cooling system 17.4L (18.4 US qt) Extended Life Antifreeze/Coolant
!
CAUTION
A sudden loss of pressure can cause hot coolant to boil and discharge violently resulting in serious injury from burns. Allow
the engine to cool down before removing the coolant pressure cap.
IMPORTANT: When filling the coolant section after it has been completely drained, the engine should be level or slightly lower
at the flywheel end.
1. Remove the pressure cap from the coolant reservoir.
2. Fill the reservoir to the full mark with the recommended coolant solution.
3. When refilling the coolant section after it has been completely drained, fill the reservoir to within 12 mm (0.50 in.) of the top
of the reservoir neck before starting the engine.
4. Replace the pressure cap.
