INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
It is recommended to install in the feed line to the radiator a thermostat with the same or about 2° lower opening
temperature as the engine thermostat. A circulating pump may also be required.
This maintains the operating temperature of the engine at normal speed and keeps it at the correct level. At the
same time, the radiator gets maximum heat.
Never run the engine at idle motion just to keep the heat in the cabin.
To ease water circulation through the heating water pipes should be large enough. If one of the radiators is
situated higher than the engine, separate compensating tanks are to be installed. The compensating tank should
be higher than the radiator, but max. height over the engine must not exceed 2 m.
Attention:
When installing a separate compensating tank for the engine's cooling system, this tank should be
the the highest part of the cooling system.
The heating's inlet and outlet connections on the engine must be provided with stop-cocks in order to permit a
disconnection of the heating, if required.
Provide the heating installation with drain cocks at the lowest points and with relief cocks at the highest points.
For connecting the water pipes to the engines, bores are provided (ex works equipped with paddings). The
arrows on the illustrations show the direction of the water stream.
