Radiator Hose Damage and Installation Condition Inspection (Kawasaki KLE 650)

0

The high pressure inside the radiator hose and pipe can cause coolant to leak [A] or the hose to burst if the line is not properly maintained.

• Visually inspect the hoses for signs of deterioration. Squeeze the hoses. A hose should not be hard and brittle, nor should it be soft or swollen.

Replace the hose if any fraying, cracks [B] or bulges [C] are noticed.

• Check that the hoses are securely connected and clamps are tightened correctly.

Torque - Radiator Hose Clamp Screws: 2.0 Nm (0.20 kgf·m, 18 in·lb)
