I have been running for 6 hours now and decided to pop open the hood of my new DK45. Noticed the coolant reservoir was low, then noticed a hose connected to the intake was just dangling down. Is this normal? See pics.

Hose goes out toward the cab.

Looks like a normal overflow hose to me. Maybe someone with an DKxxSE can help.

Overflow hoses are generally a bit more secured and just hang down rather close to the tank. I don't see any problem with yours where it is as long as it is not interfering with coolant fan or other moving parts.
