Switch off the electric circuits when about to
replace the starting pre-heater!
Replacing heating coil
Remove the intercooler housing and starting pre-heater
housing as a complete unit. Separate these housings on
the work bench in order to get at the coil.
This procedure makes it easier to align correctly the in-
tercooler assembly with the starting pre-heater housing
gasket.
When installing a new heating coil, it is important to
de-insulate all retaining screws except the earth screw.
The earth screw is insulated on the inside but has good
earth contact on the outside. Current flows through this
screw to engine earthing.
After installing the coil, switch it on and see that it
reaches operating temperature. Then allow it to cool and
check-tighten the screws.
The screws must not be check-tightened after installing the
intercooler housing, as this would mean it would not be
possible to check the heating coil without twisting it and
causing a short-ciruit.
