HOSE 1032555 - Caterpillar

Pressurized system: Hot coolant can cause serious burn. To open cap, stop engine, wait until radiator is cool. Then loosen cap slowly to relieve the pressure.
Care must be taken to ensure that fluids are contained during performance of inspection, maintenance, testing, adjusting, and repair of the product. Be prepared to collect the fluid with suitable containers before opening any compartment or disassembling any component containing fluids.Refer to Special Publication, NENG2500, "Dealer Service Tool Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on Cat products.Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.
Topping off or mixing Cat ELC with other products that do not meet Caterpillar EC-1 specifications reduces the effectiveness of the coolant, shortens coolant service life, and may cause premature wear to components.Use only Caterpillar products or commercial products that have passed the Caterpillar EC-1 specification for pre-mixed or concentrate coolants. Use only Extender with Cat ELC.Failure to follow these recommendations can result in shortened cooling system component life.

Maintain the coolant level within the gauge on the side of the coolant reservoir.
If the coolant level is low, slowly remove cooling system pressure cap.
Add the required coolant in order to maintain the coolant level within the sight gauge. Note: If it is necessary to add coolant daily, check for leaks.
Inspect the cooling system pressure cap and the cap seal. Clean the cap and install the cap. If the cap is damaged, install a new cooling system pressure cap.
Inspect the radiator core for debris. Clean the radiator core, if necessary. Reference: Refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Radiator Core - Clean" for more information.
