E4 - Coolant
DRAIN - REPLACE
- To drain the coolant, always open all the drain taps (Fig. E4-2) at once as well as the radiator
cap (Fig. E4-1).
- The water cannot drain away completely with the radiator cap closed.
- Remove the overflow pipe from the radiator pressure cap to empty the expansion tank.
- Add the prescribed amount of coolant.
- Coolant will leak out if the radiator cap is poorly closed or there is a gap between the cap and
the seat.
To avoid injury:
- Do not stop the engine suddenly. Only switch off 5 minutes after travelling
unladen.
- Only work after letting the engine and the radiator cool down completely
(more than 30 minutes after the engine has been switched off ).
- Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Then, only unscrew
the cap slightly, with the engine switched off, to release any excessive pressure,
before removing the cap completely.
- If the engine overheats, there is a risk that steam may jet out of the radiator or
the emergency tank, resulting in serious scalds.
E5 - Radiator (*)
CHECK - DESCALE
- Check that there is no dust or dirt between the radiator’s fins and the water pipes. If there is any, carefully clean them by removing this.
- Check the tightness of the fan belt. Tighten it if it is loose.
- Check that there are no internal blockages in the rubber radiator hose.
- If scale has built up in the rubber hose, clean it away with a descaling treatment or an equivalent product.
E6 - Hydraulic circuit return filter
CLEAN
NB: The hydraulic filter is fitted on the hydraulic reservoir.
- Remove the filter.
- Clean the area where the hydraulic filter meets the head of the filter.
- Replace the filter.
- Apply a fine layer of oil again to the filter seal and then fit it, tightening it down tightly by hand.
- Recommendation: use a permanent ink marker to write the date and the number of hours on the filter.
- Raise the scissors assembly 1m.
- Inspect the filter and the hydraulic components for any leaks.
