COOLANT
(ANTIFREEZE/SUMMER COOLANT/WATER)
Isuzu
recommends antifreeze/summer coolant for use in their
engines, which can be purchased in concentrate (and mixed
with 50% demineralized water) or pre-diluted. See the
Isuzu
Engine Owner’s Manual
for further details.
Day-to-day addition of coolant is done from the recovery
tank. When adding coolant to the radiator,
DO NOT
remove
the radiator cap until the unit has completely cooled. See
Table 12 for engine, radiator, and recovery tank coolant
capacities.

Operation in Freezing Weather
When operating in freezing weather, be certain the proper
amount of antifreeze (Table 13) has been added.
NOTICE
Normally, only the coolant level in the recovery tank
needs to be checked. However, the radiator cap should
be opened once a week to verify that coolant is visible
(full) inside the radiator.
