SERVICE PROCEDURE
CLEAN RADIATOR FINS AND OIL COOLER FINS
WARNING
If compressed air, high-pressure water, or steam hits your body directly or dirt is sent flying by the compressed air, high-pressure
water, or steam, there is danger of personal injury. Always wear protective glasses, dust mask, and other protective equipment.
Carry out this procedure if there is any mud or dirt stuck to the radiator or oil cooler.
1.
Remove bolt (1) and open radiator grill (2).
2. Use the steam jet nozzle to blow out the mud, dirt, or leaves
clogging the radiator fins or cooler fins.
Steam or water can be used instead of compressed air.
NOTICE
If the steam jet nozzle is brought to close to the fins, it may damage the fins,
so keep the nozzle a suitable distance away from the fins when cleaning.
3.
Check the rubber hose. Replace with a new one if the hose is
found to have cracks or to be hardened by aging.
Also, check hose clamps for looseness.
4.
When washing, use a diameter of Ø 2 mm for nozzle (3) and
keep the pressure of the high-pressure water to a maximum of
4 MPa (40 kg/cm
2
, 568 PSI).
If the mud and dirt cannot be removed by cleaning only from
the radiator grill side, remove fan net (5) and clean also from
radiator (4) side.
