Coolant Specifications
Follow the specifications for coolant and water quality to optimize system performance and prevent damage to system
components.
Recommended coolants: ASTM D-6210 and CES-14603, Peak Final Charge Global
™
, or Fleetguard ES Compleat
™
OAT.
NOTE:
M1 Series Windrowers have Peak Final Charge Global
™
coolant installed at the factory.
Mix equal parts of concentrated coolant to high quality, soft, deionized or distilled water as recommended by the supplier.
If Peak Final Charge Global
™
or Fleetguard ES Compleat
™
OAT is unavailable, use a coolant concentrate or prediluted
coolant intended for use with heavy duty diesel engines with the following chemical and physical properties:
•
Provides cylinder cavitation protection according to a fleet study run at or above 60% load capacity
•
Protects the cooling system metals (cast iron, aluminum alloys, and copper alloys such as brass) from corrosion
•
Coolant
MUST
be nitrite-free and
MUST
be free of 2-Ethylhexanoic (2-EH) acid
The additive package must be part of one of the following coolant mixtures:
•
Ethylene glycol or propylene glycol base prediluted (40
–
60%) heavy duty coolant
•
Ethylene glycol or propylene glycol base heavy-duty coolant concentrate in a 40
–
60% mixture of concentrate with
quality water
Water quality is important for the performance of the cooling system. Distilled, deionized, or demineralized water is
recommended for mixing with ethylene glycol and propylene glycol base engine coolant concentrate.
IMPORTANT:
Do
NOT
use cooling system sealing additives or antifreeze that contains sealing additives.
