Huh - I have a 2001 L3010 also and always wondered what that hose was for. Now I know - Thanks !If it is anything like the GC series, then it is literally the cooling system drain line. One end attached to the radiator, the other end attached to a plugged barb with a hose clamp. When you need to service the cooling system, open the radiator cap, remove that line and hold it over a drain pan...all the coolant drains out without much mess.
Many thanks.......BTW, used to live in Leesburg in 1976-79 (ATC) beautiful country.If it is anything like the GC series, then it is literally the cooling system drain line.
