Renew the canister(s) of the lubricating oil filter.
Fill the oil pan to the Full Mark on the dipstick
with new, clean lubricating oil. Add 1762811
POWERPART Lay-Up 2 to the oil in order to
protect the engine against corrosion. If 1762811
POWERPART Lay-Up 2 is not available, use a
preservative of the correct specification instead
of the lubricating oil. If a preservative is used,
this must be drained completely at the end of the
storage period and the oil pan must be refilled to
the correct level with normal lubricating oil.
Cooling System
To help prevent excessive engine wear, use the
following guidelines:
Do not drain the coolant while the engine is still hot and
the system is under pressure because dangerous hot
coolant can be discharged.
If freezing temperatures are expected, check the
cooling system for adequate protection against
freezing. See this Operation and Maintenance
Manual, "General Coolant Information" (Maintenance
Section).
To prevent frost damage, ensure that all the coolant is
removed from the engine. This is important if the sys-
tem is drained after it has been flushed with water, or if
an antifreeze solution too weak to protect the system
from frost has been used.

1. Ensure that the vehicle is on level ground.
2. Remove the filler cap of the cooling system.
3. Remove the drain plug (1) from the side of the
cylinder block in order to drain the engine. Ensure
that the drain hole is not restricted.

4. Open the tap or remove the drain plug at the
bottom of the radiator in order to drain the radiator.
If the radiator does not have a tap or a drain plug,
disconnect the hose at the bottom of the radiator.
5. Flush the cooling system with clean water.
6. Fit the drain plugs and the filler cap. Close the tap
or connect the radiator hose.
7. Fill the cooling system with an approved
antifreeze mixture because this gives protection
against corrosion. The maximum flow rate is 1 L
(0.2200 Imp gal) per minute in order to fill the
system.
Note: Certain corrosion inhibitors could cause
damage to some engine components. Contact the
Service Department of Perkins for advice.
8. Operate the engine for a short period in order to
circulate the lubricating oil and the coolant in the
engine.
9. Disconnect the battery. Put the battery into safe
storage in a fully charged condition. Before the
battery is put into storage, protect the terminals
against corrosion.1734115 POWERPART Lay-Up
3 can be used on the terminals.
10. Clean the crankcase breather if one is installed.
Seal the end of the pipe.
11. Remove the fuel injector nozzles and spray
1762811 POWERPART Lay-Up 2 for one or two
seconds into each cylinder bore with the piston
at BDC.
12. Slowly rotate the crankshaft for one complete
revolution and then replace the fuel injector
nozzles.
Induction System
Remove the air filter assembly. If necessary,
remove the pipes that are installed between
the air filter assembly and the turbocharger.
Spray 1762811 POWERPART Lay-Up 2 into the
turbocharger. The duration of the spray is printed
on the container. Seal the turbocharger with
waterproof tape.
Exhaust System
Remove the exhaust pipe. Spray 1762811
POWERPART Lay-Up 2 into the turbocharger. The
duration of the spray is printed on the container.
Seal the turbocharger with waterproof tape.
