Changing the coolant
The coolant must be changed by a Yamaha
dealer at the intervals specified in the periodic
maintenance and lubrication chart.
Adding water instead of coolant lowers the
antifreeze content of the coolant. If water is
used instead of coolant, have a Yamaha deal-
er check the antifreeze content of the coolant
as soon as possible.
The radiator fan is automatically switched on
or off according to the coolant temperature in
the radiator.NOTICEMix antifreeze with distilled water only.
However, if distilled water is not available,
soft water may be used for refilling.If your vehicle overheats, see page 8-63 for
instructions.

Engine overheating
Wait for the engine to cool before removing the radiator cap. WARNING! If the engine is not
cool when removing the radiator cap, hot fluid and steam could blow out under pressure
and burn you. Place a thick rag over the cap and remove the cap slowly to allow any remaining
pressure to escape.
If it is difficult to get the recommended coolant , tap water can be used temporarily, provided that
it is changed to the recommended coolant as soon as possible.Wait until the
engine has cooled.
Check the coolant level in the
coolant reservoir and/or radiator.
Level is OK.Level is low, check the
cooling system for leakage.
No
leakage.Leakage.
Ask a Yamaha dealer to inspect
and repair the cooling system.Add coolant. (See the text below.)
Restart the engine. If the engine overheats again, ask a
Yamaha dealer to inspect and/or repair the cooling system.

The figures quoted are emission levels and are not
necessarily safe working levels. Whilst there is a
correlation between the emission and exposure
levels, this cannot be used reliably to determine
whether or not further precautions are required.
Factors that influence the actual level of exposure
of work-force include the characteristics of the
work room, the other sources of noise, etc. i.e. the
number of machines and other adjacent process-
es, and the length of time for which an operator is
exposed to the noise. Also the permissible expo-
sure level can vary from country. This information,
however, will enable the user of the machine to
make a better evaluation of the hazard and risk.
