4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! Ensure you read, understand and apply safety instructions before use.
"
4.1.
Preparation.
4.1.1. Set vehicle heater control to 'On' and/or 'Hot'.
4.1.2. Drain and flush coolant system.
4.1.3. Inspect all coolant system components and repair/replace any unserviceable items.
4.1.4. Prepare a suitable coolant mix (see vehicle handbook). Mix 10% more than the
system volume to ensure that the filler hose will always be submerged.
4.1.5. Connect the VS0041 to the air system, as described in Section 3.
4.2.
Suction Filling.
4.2.1. Raise the container of coolant level with the fill point. Insert the multi-fit rubber cone into the filler neck of the radiator (or header tank, if
fitted). Support the air line so that VS0041 is not pulled off centre.
NOTE: On some vehicles fitted with an overflow tank, it may be necessary to clamp the overflow hose (fig.3).
4.2.2. Place the filler hose into the container of coolant. Ensure that the end of the hose remains submerged throughout the filling process.
4.2.3. Check that the coolant tap is in the closed (fully to the right or left) position.
NOTE: During the following procedure the radiator hoses will collapse under the vacuum being generated - this is normal.
4.2.4 Open the vacuum tap (middle position) and allow the air to evacuate until the gauge reads 50-60cmHg.
4.2.5. When the gauge is reading 50-60cmHg and has stopped rising close the vacuum tap by pushing the lever fully to the left or right and check
the gauge over the next 3 minutes. If the gauge reading drops there is a system leak which will require locating and rectifying before
proceeding further.
4.2.6. Apply a downward force during filling. Open the coolant tap fully and coolant will flow into the cooling system. For best results raise the
coolant container above the level of the filler neck.
4.2.7. When the gauge reads '0' turn the coolant tap to the off position and remove VS0041 from the filler neck. If necessary top-up the
coolant to the specified level and refit the pressure cap. The system is filled and free from air locks.
4.2.8. Start the engine and run until normal operating temperature is reached. Allow to cool and top-up coolant if necessary.
4.2.9. It is advisable to now pressure test the system and to check the operation of the thermostat and cooling fan(s).
4.2.10. When not in use, disconnect from air supply, clean and store in a safe, dry, childproof location.
5. MAINTENANCE
" WARNING! Disconnect gun from air supply before changing accessories, servicing or performing maintenance. Replace or repair damaged parts.
Use genuine parts only. Unapproved parts may be dangerous and will invalidate the warranty.
Air supply faults may cause loss of power or erratic action. Reduced compressor output, excessive drain on the air line, moisture or restrictions in
air pipes or the use of hose connections of improper size may reduce air supply.
