Air Cooling
Hot Parts can cause severe
burns.
Do not touch engine while
operating or just after stopping.
Never operate engine with heat shields or
guards removed.
NOTE: Operating engine with a restricted air
intake screen or radiator, damaged/
broken fan assembly, or missing fan
shroud will cause engine damage due
to over heating.
Proper cooling is essential. To prevent over
heating, clean screens, cooling fi ns, and other
external surfaces of engine. Avoid spraying
water at wiring harness or any electrical
components. See Maintenance Schedule.
Cooling System
Hot liquid can cause severe
burns.
Do not loosen radiator cap while
engine is operating or warm to
touch.
Liquid coolant can get extremely hot from
operation. Turning radiator cap when engine
is hot can allow steam and scalding liquid
to blow out and burn you severely. Shut off
machine. Only remove radiator cap when
cool enough to touch with bare hands. Slowly
loosen cap to fi rst stop to relieve pressure
before removing completely.
NOTE: Do not operate engine without fan and
cooling system functioning properly, or
engine damage will occur.
This engine is liquid-cooled, circulating a
mixture of ethylene glycol and water for
dependable operation. Maintaining correct
coolant level and cleaning any debris
accumulation from inlet screen and radiator
surfaces are critical to ensuring long life,
proper system performance, and preventing
overheating. A drive belt is designed and
constructed for this application. Do not use a
substitute belt. If belt is cracked, damaged,
or adequate tension does not exist, have
necessary servicing performed by a Kohler
authorized dealer.
Drain Cooling System
1. Ensure engine is cool. When radiator is cool
to touch, slowly loosen radiator cap to fi rst
stop and allow any pressure to bleed off.
Then loosen it fully and remove it.
