Refer to this Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Fluid Recommendations" for the correct intervals for changing the coolant.Clean the cooling system and flush the cooling system before the recommended maintenance interval if the following conditions exist:
The engine overheats frequently.
Foaming is observed.
The oil has entered the cooling system and the coolant is contaminated.
The fuel has entered the cooling system and the coolant is contaminated.Drain the Cooling System
Pressurized System: Hot coolant can cause serious burns. To open the cooling system filler cap, stop the engine and wait until the cooling system components are cool. Loosen the cooling system pressure cap slowly in order 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, "Cat Dealer Service Tool Catalog" or refer to Special Publication, PECJ0003, "Cat Shop Supplies and Tools Catalog" for tools and supplies suitable to collect and contain fluids on Cat products.Dispose of all fluids according to local regulations and mandates.
Note: The engine may be able to auto start. Ensure that the power supply is isolated before any service or repair is performed.
Stop the engine and allow the engine to cool. Ensure that the power supply is isolated so that the engine will not start when the cooling system is drained.
Loosen the cooling system filler cap slowly in order to relieve any pressure. Remove the cooling system filler cap.
