Before you start
- When closing the cover of the raw water strainer, make sure that it tightens well.
- Anti-freeze liquid is very poisonous! Make sure anti-freeze is not getting mixed up with raw water.
- If false air is coming into the system through a cover that is not closed tightly, there is a severe risk of overheating of the engine.
Procedure
- Close the raw water seacock and clean the raw water strainer.
- Drain so much cooling liquid from the inner cooling circuit, so as to enable you to add 1 liter of (extra) anti-freeze into the cooling circuit.
- Have the motor idling for a few seconds, so that the additional anti-freeze can be spread throughout the system.
- Make sure that the inner cooling system contains sufficient anti-freeze, in order to avoid corrosion. Check with the aid of a volume gauge.
