Removal (Fig. 8)
1.Park machine on a level surface, lower cutting deck, stop engine, apply parking brake and remove key from the ignition switch.
2.Open and support hood.
CAUTION
Do not open radiator cap or drain coolant if the radiator or engine is hot. Pressurized, hot cool- ant can escape and cause burns.
3.Drain radiator into a suitable container using the ra- diator drain. The radiator drain hose is located near the engine oil filter.
4.Disconnect upper and lower radiator hoses from the radiator.
5.Remove air cleaner hose (item 61).
6.Disconnect reservoir hose from the vent tube near the radiator cap.
7.Detach upper radiator shroud from the radiator and lower radiator shroud. Remove upper shroud from ma- chine.
8.Remove fasteners that secure lower radiator shroud to radiator.
9.Remove six (6) flange head screws and flange nuts that secure fan motor bracket to radiator.
10.Position lower radiator shroud and fan motor bracket assembly away from radiator.
11.Remove cap screws and flange nuts securing the ra- diator to the support frame. Carefully pull radiator from the machine.
12.Plug all radiator or hose openings to prevent contam- ination.
Installation (Fig. 8)
1.Remove all plugs placed during the removal proce- dure.
2.Carefully position radiator to the support frame. Se- cure radiator to the support frame with cap screws and flange nuts.
3.Position lower radiator shroud and fan motor bracket assembly to the radiator.
4.Secure fan motor bracket to radiator with six (6) flange head screws and flange nuts.
5.Position upper radiator shroud to lower radiator shroud to radiator. Secure shrouds with removed fas- teners.
6.Attach radiator shroud assembly to the radiator with cap screws and flat washers. Make sure that clearance between shroud and cooling fan is at least 0.180” (4.6 mm) at all points.
7.Connect reservoir hose to the vent tube near the ra- diator cap.
8.Connect upper and lower radiator hoses to the radia-
tor.
9.Reinstall air cleaner hose (item 61).
