4. Every 200 hours:
CHANGING THE TURBO FILTER
(at the same time as the oil change)
- Remove the old filter and discard it according to environmental require-
ments.
- Oil the rubber gasket and fit a new genuine Scania filter.
- Tighten the filter by hand.
Never use tools as the filter may sustain damage, interfering with
circulation.
- Start the engine and check for leaks.
If the deposits in the centrifugal cleaner exceed 20 mm, the turbo filter
must be changed more often, at the same time as cleaning the centrifugal
filter and changing the oil.
COOLING SYSTEM
5. Daily:
CHECKING COOLANT LEVEL
- Open the expansion tank cap and check the coolant level.
- Correct level: (Scania expansion tank)
- Cold engine:
The coolant should reach up to the bottom of
the filler pipe.
- Warm engine: The coolant should be 10 - 20 mm above the bottom
of the filler pipe.
- Other types of expansion tank according to the installer’s instructions.
- Top up coolant as necessary, see point 6.
Note:
When filling large amounts of coolant:
Never pour cold coolant into a warm engine.
This could crack the cylinder block and head.
Always top up with ready mixed
coolant.
Carefully open the cap.
Hot water and steam
may blow out.
Always collect oil in a suitable
container to avoid spillage when
renewing the oil filter.
Dispose of used filters through
an authorized waste disposal
contractor.
