3. Pour cooling water into the cooling
water filling necks.
4. If the cooling water level no longer
drops (the cooling water level in cold
waters must cover the tin in the
exhaust elbow), close the filler cover
and the cooling water screws and then
start the generator.
5. Run the generator for approx. 60
Seconds, then switch off
6. Refill cooling water via the compensa-
tion tank.

7. The compensation tank is connected to the generator by two hoses.
The external compensation tank should be filled to a max 20% in a cold state. It is very
important that a larger expansion area is maintained above the cooling water level.
8. Repeat this procedure 1 - 5 times.
If there is no change to the state of the cooling water level, the generator is re-started for 5 minu-
tes. Thereafter the de-aeration must be repeated two to three times.
