Bleeding the Cooling System

Use of a non-standard pressure cap will not allow the recovery system to

function properly. If the pressure cap needs replacement, contact your

dealer for the correct part.

Recovery System (WideTrak)
If the coolant level becomes low in the coolant

bottle, bleed the system of any trapped air.

Visually inspect the coolant filter (

✪) and

replace it if it's dirty.

1. Fill the coolant bottle with coolant to the

maximum mark.

2. Elevate the front end of the machine

slightly to aid bleeding of the heat exchangers.

3. Remove the pressure cap and add coolant to the top of the filler

neck.

4. Install the pressure cap with the lever lock up, in its release position.
5. Run the engine at various RPMs for two to three minutes to purge

the system of trapped air.

6. Close the lever lock and check the coolant bottle fluid level. Add

coolant if necessary to the maximum mark.

WARNING

Steam and hot liquids will cause serious burns to your skin. Never bleed the

cooling system or remove the pressure cap when the engine is warm or hot.
