Testing the cooling liquid composition The „Engine operating instructions“ contain a detailed description of how to prepare and test the cooling liquid composition. In case of imminent frost check that the factory-adjusted anti-freeze concentration is sufficient for the expected temperatures. Check the cooling liquid in the cooling system regularly to ensure that the SCA mixture is sufficiently concentrated to prevent corrosion under the corresponding operating conditions. Fig. 3-19:
To do so: " Prepare a collecting recipient for used cooling liquid. Choose the required recipient capacity in accordance with the "Refilling quantities Other" table. " Shut off the engine.
Checking the SCA concentration Observe the instructions of the engine manufacturer with regard to the SCA concentration (see engine manufacturer's operating instructions).
" Open hatch 2 (Fig. 3-19:). " Unscrew plug (arrow, Fig. 3-20:) and drain off cooling liquid completely. " Re-insert the plug with a new sealing ring. " Fill in special prepared cooling liquid CAT ELC, Terex|O&K Part No. 2482777 (see: "Refilling quantities - Other" table.)
