OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 6015 / RH40E Inspection and servicing COOLING SYSTEM
Cooler and cooling liquid Risk of falling
Read and observe: "Inspection and servicing - Safety instructions".
Put on a safety harness before working on the superstructure. Attach the safety line to eyelets or railings (arrows, Fig. 3-19:).
Secure the machine as described in the "Securing the machine" section. Shut off the engine and allow to cool down. Risk of scalding from hot cooling liquid. Collect escaping cooling liquid and discard without polluting the environment. Protect the skin from contact with cooling liquid. Skin contact with cooling liquid is a potential health hazard. Wear protective gloves and firm working clothing.
Temperature The cooling-liquid circuit is controlled by a thermostat. The maximum admissible temperature is ca. 100° C / 212° F. In case of higher temperatures warning lamp on satellite illuminated - locate cause and rectify.
The cooler (1, Fig. 3-19:) is located on the superstructure. Check the cooler fins for dirt before every workshift and clean, if necessary. Check the coolant level at the indicator (3, Fig. 3-20:). The coolant level should be between the “FULL” and the “LOW” mark. An insufficient coolant level is also indicated by means of a warning lamp in the control satellite. Top up with coolant, if necessary.
