4. 

Connect the block to the rest of the cooling circuit.  

The block is designed in such a way that it will bleed itself automatically in any vertical orientation (computer standing-up) . 
 

5. Type 

of 

Coolant: 

a)  For best performance, use 95% distilled water, and 5% Swiftech brand “HydrX” corrosion inhibitor (available here: 

http://www.swiftnets.com/store/category.asp?CatID=2

, under the “accessories” section).  

b)  In ALL cases, you MUST use Distilled water AND a corrosion inhibitor with the MCW5002 water-block. Regular automotive anti-freeze is 

acceptable.  Automotive manufacturers recommend that not less than 25% is used. 

c) 

NEVER use tap water, even for a short-term test.  

d)  Not following paragraphs b and c above constitutes misuse (*) of the product, and will void your warranty. 

6. 

Final inspection 

Once the installation is completed, 

it is always a good idea to test the circuit for leaks, prior to powering up the computer

. Troubleshooting

Note concerning removal of the tubing

: Push in collet squarely against face of fitting, using swiftech’s tube removal tool, or a wrench of 

approximately the same opening diameter as the tube (1/2” +). With the collet firmly held against the face of the fitting, the tube can be safely pulled out. Do 
not attempt to pull the tube out without pushing squarely against the collet. This may result in damaging the fitting.
