As the aluminum radiator adopts an integral core plate crimp construction, remove the upper and lower tanks by lifting up the core plate crimping in such a way that the latter is not damaged. Release the crimping by using SST and by gripping it until it hits the stopper bolt of the handle as shown in the illustration.
Note
Do not lift up the core plate crimping more than 90°.
Remove the upper tank by lightly tapping the radiator hose fitting position.
