Maintenance Instructions
Fill in cooling water into the cooling water
filler neck. If it is to be recognized that the
cooling water level does not fall anymore
(with cold cooling water the cooling water
levelmust cover the sheet metal in the
exhaust elbow), close the filler-cap and
the cooling water screws and start the
generator.
Now the cooling water is only filled over the external expansion tank. This is connected by 2
hoses with the genset.
The external expansion tank should be filled in the cold condition only up to maximally
20%. It is very important that a large extension space over the cooling water level remains.
Repeat this procedure several times.
If no change of the cooling water level can be determined, the generator is started for 5 minutes.
Afterwards repeat the de-aeration two - three times.
It is meaningful to repeat the de-aeration procedure also after some days again to guarantee that
in the system remained bubbles are removed.
The de-aerating screw over the housing of
the cooling water pump may be opened
under no circumstances, while the generator
runs. If this happens inadvertently,
through the opening air is sucked in. A
very complex de-aerationt of the entire
system is necessary thereafter.
