MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT

j
Cooling System
Radiator and Cooling Fan
Check and clean the screen and radiator fins for
obstruction by insects or mud in accordance with
the Periodic Maintenance Chart. In dusty areas, the
radiator should be cleaned more frequently than the
recommended interval.
A. Radiator
B. Screen
Clean the screen, and radiator fins of any obstruc-
tions with a stream of low-pressure water.
If insects or mud can not be completely removed,
it should be cleaned by an authorized Kawasaki
dealer.
NOTICE
Using high-pressure water, as from a car
wash facility, could damage the radiator fins
and impair the radiator’s effectiveness.
Do not obstruct or deflect airflow through
the radiator by installing unauthorized ac-
cessories in front of the radiator or behind
the cooling fan.
Interference with the ra-
diator airflow can lead to overheating and
consequent engine damage.
Coolant
Coolant absorbs excessive heat from the engine
and transfers it to the air at the radiator. If the coolant
level becomes low, the engine overheats and may
suffer damage.
Check the coolant level each day
before operating the vehicle, and replenish coolant
if the level is low. Change the coolant in accordance
with the Periodic Maintenance Chart.
NOTE
A permanent type of antifreeze is installed in the
cooling system when shipped. It is colored green
and contains ethylene glycol. It is mixed at 50%
with water and has a freezing point of –35°C
(–31°F).
