NOTE: The loader is factory filled with propylene
glycol coolant (purple color). DO NOT mix
propylene glycol with ethylene glycol.
Add premixed coolant, 47% water and 53% propylene
glycol to the recovery tank. (See Checking Level on
Page 82.)
4,3 L of propylene glycol mixed with 3,8 L of water is the
correct mixture of coolant to provide a -37°C (-34°F)
freeze protection.
Remove the coolant fill cap. Fill the tank until it is at the
lower marker on the tank.
Use a refractometer to check the condition of propylene
glycol in your cooling system.
Run the engine until it is at operating temperature. Stop
the engine. Check the coolant level when cool. Add
coolant as needed.
Install the rear grill and close the rear door.
