Engine Maintenance - General

Refer to the engine owner’s manual for all engine main- tenance procedures and recommendations.

Clean Debris Out of Engine

Compartment

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours, or As Necessary

Stop the engine and allow the unit to cool. Remove all debris from the engine compartment. Be sure all cooling fins, radiators, screens, and areas around the exhaust system are clean.

WARNING

Keep the unit free of grass, leaves, and other debris. Flammable debris many be ignited by hot engine parts causing serious injury or property damage.

Clean Radiator

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours, or As Necessary

Clean the radiator, or radiator screen with compressed air at regular intervals, or if dirty. The radiator is located at the rear of the engine compartment on liquid-cooled models. Liquid cooled models also have a removable radiator screen (F, Figure 24). Clean all cooling system components.

Clean Transmission Oil Cooler

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours, or As Necessary

The transmission oil cooler (C, Figures 24) is located behind the engine and should be cleaned with com- pressed air at regular intervals or if dirty.

Check Engine Coolant Level

Service Interval: Every 25 Hours, or As Necessary

The engine coolant level and quality should be checked before each use, when the engine is off and cool.

1.Check the coolant level in the overflow reservoir (A, Figure 24). Coolant should be between the “H” and “L” marks on the tank.

2.If the coolant level is below the “L” mark on the over- flow reservoir, add coolant by shutting off the engine, allowing the engine to cool, removing the reservoir cap, and adding coolant. Proper coolant mix is a 50/50 mixture of ethylene glycol and distilled water.

Change Engine Coolant

See Engine Manual for antifreeze recommendations and change intervals. See Figures 24 for drain plug locations.
