    Fill

    Close the radiator draincocks.

    Install the lower radiator hose(s).

    Tighten the hose clamps.

    Torque Value: 5 n.m [44 in-lb]

    Close the engine draincock.

    Close the oil cooler draincock or plug.


    Cummins Inc. recommends using
    either a 50/50 mixture of good quality
    water and fully formulated antifreeze,
    or fully formulated coolant when filling
    the cooling system. The fully
    formulated antifreeze or coolant must
    meet TMC RP 329 or TMC RP 330
    specifications.

    Good quality water is important for


    cooling system performance.
    Excessive levels of calcium and
    magnesium contribute to scaling
    problems, and excessive levels of
    chlorides and sulfates cause cooling
    system corrosion.

    Cummins Inc. recommends using


    Fleetguard® Compleat™. It is
    available in both glycol forms
    (ethelyne and propylene) and
    complies with TMC standards.
    NOTE:
    NOTE: Some radiators have two fill
    locations, both of which must be filled
    when the cooling system is drained.

    Fill the cooling system with coolant to


    the bottom of the fill neck in the
    radiator fill (or expansion) tank.

    Install the radiator or expansion


    tank fill cap.

    Operate the engine until it reaches


    a temperature of 82°C [180°F],
    and check for leaks.
    WARNING

    Do not remove the pressure cap


    from a hot engine. Wait until the
    coolant temperature is below 50°C
    [120°F] before removing the
    pressure cap. Heated coolant spray
    or steam can cause personal injury.

    Shut the engine OFF and allow it to


    cool.

    CAUTION

    Do not add cold coolant to a hot


    engine. This can cause engine
    casting damage. Allow the
    engine to cool to below 50°C
    [120°F] before adding coolant.
    Remove the radiator or fill cap, and
    check the coolant level per the
    OEM service manual
    recommendations. Add coolant if
    necessary. Do not over fill.
