Use equation V × 0.045 = X to determine amount of Perkins SCA required.
V is total volume of cooling system. X is amount of SCA required.

Adding the SCA to Heavy-Duty Coolant for Maintenance maintenance

Test antifreeze periodically for concentration of SCA.
Use equation V × 0.014 = X to determine amount of Perkins SCA required.
V is total volume of cooling system. X is amount of SCA required.

Clean all disconnected connections and battery terminals.
Use fine grade sandpaper to clean terminals and cable clamps until bright. Do not remove material excessively. Coat with silicone lubricant or petroleum jelly.
Tape cable connections to help prevent accidental starting.
Proceed with necessary system repairs.
To connect battery, connect positive connection before negative connection.

Belts - Inspect/Adjust/Replace maintenance

Tools: Burroughs gauge, torque wrench

Inspect belts for wear and cracking. Replace worn or damaged belts.
For multiple drive belts, replace belts in matched sets.
