Check Coolant Conditioner
1. Turn cap slowly to the stop to release pressure. Then remove cap. NOTE: A coolant strip test, available from your dealer, provides a simple, effective way to check freeze point and molybdate/nitrite levels. These results can be compared to the SCA chart to determine the amount of coolant conditioner in your system. 2. Add TY16004 John Deere Coolant Conditioner or equivalent non-chromate conditioner/rust inhibitor (if needed), following instructions on container. Drain enough coolant from the radiator to allow room for the conditioner. Specification
NOTE: Check conditioner every 12 months or if you replace 1/3 or more of coolant. John Deere Liquid Coolant Conditioner does not protect against freezing. DO NOT add John Deere liquid coolant conditioner to a cooling system already equipped with an operational filter conditioner system. Too much conditioner in a cooling system may cause silicate-dropout. When this happens, a gel-type deposit is created which can restrict coolant passages in the radiator and engine, resulting in engine overheating. |

CAUTION:
Prevent possible injury from hot spraying coolant. DO NOT remove radiator cap unless the engine is cool. Loosen cap slowly to the stop. Release all pressure before removing cap.
