System Maintenance and Service
Required Tools and Materials
Collection container/Hose – Note, unit holds approximately 1-2 liters of fluid.
Procedure
1.
The coolant is now drained.
15.6 Coolant Maintenance
Periodically inspect the coolant for contamination. Replace if the coolant
becomes dirty/contaminated.
15.7 Cleaning the Heat Exchanger
Cooling capacity is heavily reduced if the heat exchanger is contaminated. The
heat exchanger must be checked for contamination (particulates) regularly and
be cleaned, if required.
The cleaning of the heat exchanger must be performed in accordance with the
maintenance intervals.

First you may tip it over and drain the reservoir. If you can't do that then,
first, connect a fitting to the inlet and allow the reservoir to drain. Next,
connect a fitting to the outlet. It might be best to have some hose on this
one to allow gravity to help drain the engine. A lite burst of air 5-10 PSI into
the reservoir could help to push the liquid from the engine.
DANGER
The use of water/chemicals for cleaning the heat exchanger
can cause short circuit and damage the fan
The use of water/chemicals for cleaning the heat exchanger can damage the
fan and result in a short circuit. In this case persons are in danger to get an
electric shock.
Do not clean the heat exchanger with water/chemicals.
