CLEAN INSIDE OF COOLING SYSTEM 4
WARNING
q
Immediately after the engine is stopped, the coolant is at a high temperature and the radiator is under
high internal pressure.
If the cap is removed to drain the coolant in this condition, there is a hazard of burns. Wait for the tem-
perature to go down, then
turn the cap slowly to release the pressure before removing it.
q
When starting the engine while cleaning the machine, set the lock lever in the lock position to prevent
the machine from moving.
q
For details of starting the engine, see “BEFORE STARTING ENGINE (3-120)“ and “STARTING ENGINE
(3-139)“ in the OPERATION section.
q
There is danger of touching the fan if the undercover is left removed.
Never enter behind the machine when the engine is running.
Stop the machine on level ground when cleaning or changing the coolant.
Clean the inside of the cooling system, change the coolant and replace the corrosion resistor according to the
table below.
*: Permanent type antifreeze shall meet the requirements of ASTM D3306-03.
The coolant has the important function of preventing corrosion as well as preventing freezing.
Even in the areas where freezing is not an issue, the use of antifreeze coolant is essential.
Komatsu machines are supplied with Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC). Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC) has
excellent anticorrosion, antifreeze and cooling properties and can be used continuously for 2 years or 4000 hours.
Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC) is strongly recommended wherever available.
When using Komatsu Supercoolant (AF-NAC), there is no need to use a corrosion resistor.
When no corrosion resistor is used, use the special cover (600-411-9000). Please consult your Komatsu distributor
about the method of installing.
To maintain the anticorrosion properties of Supercoolant (AF-NAC), always keep the density of Supercoolant
between 30% and 68%.
When deciding the ratio of antifreeze to water, check the lowest temperature in the past, and decide from the mix-
ing table given below.
It is actually better to estimate and temperature about 10°C lower when deciding the mixing ratio.
