Published 05-03-17, Control # 228-03
Filling Cooling System
See Figure 7-8 for the following procedure.
For antifreeze and coolant additive recommendations, see
the Cummins Operation and Maintenance Manual.
Coolant system capacity is approximately 95 liters (25
gallons).
1. Open the seven bleed valves:
• One on top of the coolant tube
• Four on the radiator
• Two on the DEF coolant manifold block (see
Figure 7-12
)
2. Remove the pressure cap from the deaeration tank and
begin to fill the cooling system.
While filling, observe the bleed valves. When coolant
without bubbles appears at a bleed valve, close the
valve.
3. Continue adding coolant until the level is at the upper
sight glass. Make sure all bleed valves are closed.
NOTE: Maximum fill rate is 11 liters/min (3 gpm).
4. Install the pressure cap and run the engine until it
reaches normal operating temperature.
While the engine is running, look for coolant leaks.
5. Stop the engine, wait until the engine is cool, and refill
the cooling system to the upper sight glass.
CAUTION
Material Hazard!
Coolant is toxic. Do not ingest coolant. If the coolant is not
reused, dispose of the coolant in accordance with all local
and other applicable environmental regulations.
CAUTION
Engine Damage!
The required Supplemental Coolant Additive (SCA)
concentration must be maintained to prevent engine
damage.
Supplemental Coolant Additive must be added to the
cooling system to prevent liner pitting and for scaling pro-
tection.
Check SCA concentration according to the schedule in
the Cummins manual and per the warnings, cautions, and
instructions.
WARNING
Burn Hazard!
Avoid personal injury from heated coolant spray or steam.
Do not remove the pressure cap from a hot radiator/
engine. Stop the engine and wait until the coolant
temperature is below 50° C (122° F). To remove the
pressure cap, use the following procedure:
• Place a protective covering over the pressure cap.
• Slowly turn the cap counterclockwise until it stops at
the safety detent.
• Wait until the pressure (indicated by a hissing sound)
is completely relieved.
• Depress the pressure cap and turn it
counterclockwise to remove it.
CAUTION
Engine Damage!
The required coolant level must be maintained to prevent
engine damage.
