Corrosion Inhibitors
Warning
D2053 OAT coolant contains corrosion
inhibitors and antifreeze suitable
for aluminum engines and radiators.
Always use the coolant in accordance
with the instructions of the
manufacturer.
Coolant contains toxic chemicals that
are harmful to the human body.
Contact with skin or eyes may cause
severe irritation. Wear protective
gloves, clothing and eye protection
when handling coolant.
If coolant is inhaled, remove the
person to fresh air and keep
comfortable for breathing. In case of
doubt or persistent symptoms, seek
medical attention.
If coolant gets on your skin, flush
with water immediately. Remove
contaminated clothing.
If coolant gets in your eyes, flush with
water for at least 15 minutes and SEEK
MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
If coolant is swallowed, rinse the
mouth with water and SEEK MEDICAL
ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY.
KEEP COOLANT OUT OF THE REACH OF
CHILDREN.
Note
D2053 OAT coolant, as supplied by
Triumph, is premixed and does not need
to be diluted prior to filling or topping
off the cooling system.
To protect the cooling system from
corrosion, the use of corrosion inhibitor
chemicals in the coolant is essential.
If coolant containing a corrosion
inhibitor is not used, the cooling system
will accumulate rust and scale in the
water jacket and radiator. This will block
the coolant passages, and considerably
reduce the efficiency of the cooling
system.
Coolants of different types must not
be mixed. Mixing coolants of different
types will reduce the performance of
the coolant and reduce its life. When
replacing coolant, it is recommended
to thoroughly flush the cooling system
with clean water.
Coolant Level Inspection
The expansion tank can be viewed from
the left hand side of the motorcycle. The
coolant level within the expansion tank
can be inspected without removing any
covers.
