{CAUTION:
You can be burned if you spill coolant on
hot engine parts. Coolant contains
ethylene glycol and it will burn if the
engine parts are hot enough. Do not spill
coolant on a hot engine.
1. You can remove the
coolant surge tank
pressure cap when
the cooling system,
including the coolant
surge tank pressure
cap and upper
radiator hose, is no
longer hot.
Turn the pressure cap slowly counterclockwise
about one full turn. If you hear a hiss, wait
for that to stop. A hiss means there is
still some pressure left.2. Then keep turning the pressure cap slowly,
and remove it.
3. Fill the coolant surge tank with the proper
mixture, to the FULL COLD mark.

To change an empty ether cylinder, follow
these steps.
1. Loosen the screw head on the
cylinder-to-bracket clamp.
2. Spread the clamp apart.
3. Clean any dirt from the neck of the cylinder
and the top of the valve before you take out
the cylinder.
4. Check the inside of the valve for any foreign
matter. Clean the valve as necessary.
5. Cover the valve to protect it from dirt and take
out the cylinder.
6. Install a new gasket whenever you take out
the cylinder. Use only one gasket and spread
a light film of clean oil on it before installation.
7. Put in the new cylinder. Turn it clockwise until
it just starts to contact the gasket.
8. Tighten the cylinder another half turn
(180 degrees). Don’t over-tighten.
9. Retighten the cylinder clamp.Front Wheel Bearings with
Oil-Filled Hubs
Notice:If you drive your vehicle through deep
water that is higher than the front or rear
axle, water may enter the axle housing and
cause the axle lubricant to break down.
This could damage the gears inside. Avoid
driving your vehicle through deep water.
You should avoid driving your vehicle through
deep puddles or standing water. If you must drive
through water that is higher than the front or
rear axle, see your dealer immediately afterward
to have the condition of the axle lubricant checked.

Tightening the Wheel Nuts
{CAUTION:
Wheel nuts that are not tight can work
loose. If all the nuts on a wheel come off,
the wheel can come off the vehicle,
causing a crash. All wheel nuts must be
properly tightened. Follow the rules in this
section to be sure they are.
This section lets you know how often to check the
tightness of the wheel nuts on your vehicle and
how tight they must be.
First, use these pictures to decide what kind of
wheels you have.Then, refer to the following steps for the wheels
you have.
Hub-Piloted Wheels, 8-Hole or 10-Hole
The studs and nuts used with these wheels have
right-hand threads.
1. With intermittent pilot pads, position a pad at
12 o’clock to center the wheel and reduce
run-out.
2. Put the tire and rim assembly on the axle hub.
Install the outer rear tire and rim assembly so
that its valve stem is exactly opposite the
valve stem on the inner tire and rim assembly.
