COOLER ASSEMBLY
See Figure 7-7 and Figure 7-8
Check the Coolant Level
On a daily basis, check coolant level by using the sight glass
(2, Figure 7-8
) located on the top of the radiator. Coolant
should be visible in the glass.
1. Open the access cover. Place a heavy cloth over the
pressure cap (1), then turn (do not depress) the cap.
Wait for pressure to escape, then remove the cap.
2. Add coolant to the radiator.
3. When coolant is visible in the sight glass (2), install the
cap.
NOTE: Maximum fill rate is 3 GPM (11 liters/min).
4. Run the engine until normal operating temperature is
reached.
5. When engine is cool, re-check the coolant level. If
needed, add coolant until it is visible in the sight glass.
WARNING
Burn Hazard
Do not remove the radiator fill cap from a hot engine.
Allow the engine to cool below 120° F (50° C) before
adding coolant.

Coolant is toxic. Do not ingest. If not reused, dispose of in
accordance with all local and other applicable
environmental regulations.
CAUTION
Maintain Coolant Additive
The required Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA)
concentration must be maintained to prevent engine
damage.
A Supplemental Coolant Additive must be used in the
cooling system to prevent liner pitting and for scaling
protection.
Check the SCA concentration according to the schedule
in the engine manufacturer’s manual and per the
manufacturer’s warnings, cautions, and instructions.
CAUTION
Potential Engine Damage
The required coolant level must be maintained to prevent
engine damage.
