Recommended Engine Coolant

CAUTION

Avoid injury:

Fluids released under pressure from the cooling system can cause severe burns. Pressure build-up in the cooling system can, when the radiator cap is removed, cause the coolant to gush out explosively.

Shut down the engine and allow it to cool off.

Do not remove the radiator cap before the radiator and the engine are sufficiently cool such that they can be touched with bare hands. Carefully loosen the cap to the first stop to allow the pressure to be completely released. Only then, remove the cap completely.

[The following coolants are recommended]

High Quality Permanent Type Antifreeze (Ethylene Glycol with corrosion and rust inhibitor chemicals)

Before using the coolant, study the instructions and data on its container to be sure it is suitable for the engine. Use a conditioned coolant, or before use, add a conditioner to the coolant.

Prepare the coolant by mixing 50% antifreeze with 50% distilled or deionized water, and then pour this coolant into the radiator. This coolant is intended not only to cool the engine but also to protect the radiator against freezing down to a temperature of –34°F (–37°C).

Follow the instructions on the antifreeze container or contact your local Cub Cadet Yanmar dealer for technical assistance. NEVER exceed the maximum dilution ratio for the coolant. Exceeding the maximum dilution ratio can jeopardize effectiveness of the coolant.
