Radiator (In Tank Oil Cooler) Installation Note

1.  The automatic transaxle oil cooler flushing must be performed whenever a transaxle is removed for service because the existing fluid may be contaminated, and to prevent contamination of new fluid.

Note
•   Flushing must be performed after installation of the overhauled or replaced transaxle.

2.  Follow the instructions in the manufacturer’s publication for flushing operation.


Oil Pipe, Hose Clamp, Oil Hose Installation Note

1.  Apply compressed air to the cooler-side opening, and blow any remaining grime and foreign material from the cooler pipes. Compressed air should be applied for no less than one minute.
