These recommendations are subject to change without prior notice. Contact your Caterpillar dealer for the most up to date recommendations.
Never add coolant to an overheated engine. Engine damage could result. Allow the engine to cool first.
Frequently check the specific gravity of the coolant for proper freeze protection or for anti-boil protection.
Never operate an engine without water temperature regulators in the cooling system. Water temperature regulators help to maintain the engine coolant at the proper operating temperature. Cooling system problems can develop without water temperature regulators.
