WARNING
DO NOT replace coolant temperature or ether start switches unless engine has been allowed to cool
down. This is a pressurized cooling system and escaping steam or hot coolant may cause serious burns.
DO NOT remove cooling system radiator cap when engine is hot. Allow engine to cool down. Loosen
cap to first stop and let any pressure out of cooling system, then remove cap. Failure to follow this
warning may cause serious burns.
Wear effective eye, glove and skin protection when handling coolants. Failure to do so may cause
injury.
