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 an overhauled or replaced transaxle.

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

Oil Hose Installation Note

NOTE:

If reusing the hose, install the new hose clamp exactly on the mark left by the previous hose clamp. Then apply force to the hose clamp in the
direction of the arrow in order to fit the clamp in place.
