G. COOLING SYSTEM
NOTE: When a new machine is shipped from the Hi-
tachi factory, the cooling system is filled with a
mixture of water and genuine Hitachi Long-Life
Coolant (LLC).
Coolant
Use fresh water which includes fewer impurities or nor-
mal tap water for the coolant. Avoid using strong acid or
alkaline water. Be sure to use genuine Hitachi long life
coolant (LLC).
Long Life Coolant (LLC)
LLC has two functions, antifreeze and anti-rust agent. As
a general rule, the ratio of antifreeze should range be-
tween 30% and 60%. If the ratio is below 30%, the sys-
tem may develop rust, and if it is above 60% the engine
may overheat.
NOTE: As for Borax Coolant, the mixed ratio, 50% is
recommended for anti-rust.
