COOLANT HEATER

right-hand side of the engine block.
Output 1,000
W
Voltage 220 V
STARTING THE ENGINE USING THE COOLANT HEATER
The heater allows starting the engine at low ambient temperature by preheating the
coolant. The electrical system and its protection against electrical shock hazard must
be done according to valid regulations.
1. Plug the heater first.
2. Plug the cable with connected heater to 220 V mains after.
With regard to reduction of engine wear when starting at low temperatures, the pro-
ducer recommends to use the heater. The preheating time depends upon the ambi-
ent temperature (1 to 2 hours before supposed starting are sufficient).
Having finished the heating, unplug the mains first and the heater only after!
Electrical shock hazard!
It is necessary to ensure instruction of tractor operators and regular
revisions of the coolant heater including the inlet cable in accordance
with valid standards of the country, in which the tractor is operated,
minimum before each winter season.
