Anti-freeze
To avoid personal injury:
A
When using anti-freeze, put on some protection
such as rubber gloves (Anti-freeze contains
poison.).
A
If you should drink anti-freeze, throw up at
once and seek medical attention.
A
When anti-freeze comes in contact with the
skin or clothing, wash it off immediately.
A
Do not mix different types of Anti-freeze. The
mixture can produce chemical reaction
causing harmful substances.
A
Anti-freeze is extremely flammable and
explosive under certain conditions. Keep fire
and children away from anti-freeze.
A
When draining fluids from the engine, place
some container underneath the engine body. If
swallowed anti-freeze is harmful.
A
Do not pour waste onto the grounds, down a
drain, or into any water source.
A
Observe the relevant environmental protection
regulations when disposing of anti-freeze.
If it freezes, coolant can damage the cylinders and
radiator. If the ambient temperature falls below 0
(32
) or before a long-term storage, drain cooling
system and mix fresh water with long-life coolant (LLC)
and fill the radiator and recovery tank with the mixture to
the proper level.
1. LLC comes in several types. Use ethylene glycol (EG)
type for this engine.
2. Before adding LLC-mixed with water, fill the radiator
with fresh water and empty it again.
Repeat this procedure 2 or 3 times to clean the inside
of the engine cooling system.
3. Mix the LLC with water in the percentage (%) for a
target temperature. When mixing, stir it up well, and
then fill into the radiator and the reserve tank.
4. The procedure for the mixing of water and antifreeze
differs according to the make of the antifreeze and the
ambient temperature. Refer to SAE J1034 and SAE
J814c standard.
A
When the antifreeze is mixed with water, the
antifreeze mixing ratio must be less than 50%.
* At 1.013 x 10 Pa (760 mmHg) pressure (atmospheric).
A higher boiling point is obtained by using a radiator
pressure cap which permits the development of pressure
within the cooling system.
5. Adding the LLC
(1) Add only water if the mixture reduces in amount
by evaporation.
(2) If there is a mixture leak, add the LLC of the same
manufacturer and type in the same mixture
percentage.
6. When the LLC is mixed, do not add any radiator
cleaning agent. The LLC contains anticorrosive agent.
If mixed with the cleaning agent, sludge may build up,
adversely affecting the engine parts.
7. Kubota's genuine LLC has a service life of 2 years. Be
sure to change the coolant liquid every 2 years.
A
The above data represent industry standards that
necessitate a minimum glycol content in the
concentrated antifreeze.
A
When the coolant level drops due to evaporation, add
water only to keep the antifreeze mixing ratio less than
50%. In case of leakage, add antifreeze and water in
the specified mixing ratio before filling into the radiator.

(Different brands may have different additive
components, and the engine may fail to
perform as specified.)
