Cooling System Sealing Additives
1
OK
1. Do not use sealing additives.
CAUTION
The use of sealing additives in the cooling
system can cause damage to the engine.
Sealing additives can plug various areas of
the radiator, EGR system and oil cooler. The
plugging of the cooling system can hamper
heat transfer, causing internal engine dam-
age. Do not use sealing additives in the
cooling system. The use of sealing additives
can:
• Build up in coolant low-flow
areas.
• Plug the radiator and oil cooler.
• Damage the water pump seal.
Failure to comply may result in equipment or
property damage.
Cooling System Soluble Oils
OK
1
1. Do not use soluble oils.
CAUTION
The use of soluble oils in the cooling system
can cause damage to the engine. Soluble
oils in the cooling system can:
• Damage heat transfer surfaces.
• Damage seals and hoses.
• Corrode brass and copper.
Failure to comply may result in equipment or
property damage.
Where to add Coolant?
The coolant surge tank is located on a
structure behind the cab.
Coolant may be added via the fill cap on
the tank.
