How to Clean Radiator Screens

The screen on each radiator protects against dirt and debris clogging the radiators.

Cleaning the radiator screens is an important daily task. If the tractor is dusty or if there are long pieces of debris falling into the radiator screens, it’s important to remove them as soon as it’s safe to do so.

To clean radiator screens:

  1. Power off the tractor.
  2. Allow the tractor to cool down.
  3. Do any of the following:
    • Use a clean cloth to wipe each screen.
    • Use compressed air to blow dirt and debris off the screen. Keep the air under 30psi to protect the radiator fins below the screen.
    • Rinse the radiator screens with hose water.
    • Remove the screens to clean with soap and water them if they are extremely dirty.

WARNING: Do NOT use a pressure washer on radiator screens. Radiator fins, which are directly under the radiator screens, can be bent or damaged by pressure washing.
