Important
Following the maintenance steps listed
above will, under normal conditions, keep the system
trouble-free. However, if the indicator light on the control
panel and audible warning signal activate during operation,
the engine should be stopped and the fuel system serviced
before operation is resumed. This can prevent serious
engine damage from occurring.
Engine Cooling System
The cooling system holds approximately 3.9 gal (14.7 l) of
a 50/50 solution of ethylene glycol anti–freeze and water.
To properly maintain the system, use the following
procedures:
1. Check coolant level each day before starting the engine;
refer to Check Cooling System in Before Operating
section.
Caution
If the engine has been running, the pressurized,
hot coolant can escape and cause burns.
Do not open the radiator cap when the engine is
running.
Use a rag when opening the radiator cap, and
open the cap slowly to allow steam to escape.
