F - EVERY 2000 HOURS OF SERVICE OR EVERY TWO YEARS
Carry out the operations described previously as well as the following operations.
F1 – COOLING LIQUID
DRAIN
These operations are to be carried out if necessary or every two years at the beginning
of winter. Place the lift truck on level ground with the I.C. engine stopped and cold.
IMPORTANT
The I.C. engine does not contain any corrosion resistor and must be filled during the whole year with a mixture
containing 25 % of ethylene glycol-based antifreeze.
DRAINING THE LIQUID
- Lift up the cab (see: 2 - DESCRIPTION: INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS).
- Set a container under hose 1 on the radiator and drain plug 2 of the engine block.
- Disconnect hose 1.
- Loosen drain plug 2.
- Remove radiator filler cap 3.
- Let the cooling circuit drain entirely while ensuring that the ports do not get clogged.
- Check the condition of the hoses as well as the fastening devices and change the
hoses if necessary.
- Rinse the circuit with clean water and use a cleaning agent if necessary.
FILLING THE LIQUID
- Reconnect hose 1.
- Retighten drain plug 2 (tightening torque 40 N.m).
- Slowly fill up the circuit with cooling liquid (see: 3 - MAINTENANCE: LUBRICANTS
AND FUEL) up to the middle of gauge 5 through filler port 4.
- Refit the filler plug 3.
- Run the engine at idle for a few minutes.
- Check for any possible leaks.
- Check the level and refill if necessary.
