WARNING Risk of injury  due to fan starting unexpectedly Do not reach into the rotation or hazard area of the fan. Wear closed and close-fitting work clothes. AS20.40-Z-0001-01A 
WARNING Risk of injury  to skin and eyes suffering scalding from contact with hot coolantspray. Risk of poisoning  from swallowing coolant. Do not open cooling system unless coolant temperature is below 90°C. Open cap slowly and release the overpressure. Do not pour coolant into beverage containers.
Wear protective gloves, protective clothing and safety glasses.

REMOVING Remove     
1 Switch on ignition.    
2 Adjust heater to maximum heating output.    
3 Open cap (1) on coolant expansion reservoir (2) carefully and reduce overpressure.    
4 Check coolant level and antifreeze content of coolant. FLUID SPECIFICATION Engine 177 in model 223

5 Screw tester cap (3) onto coolant expansion reservoir (2). SPECIAL TOOL Test cap Fig 1
6 Connect pressure pump (4) at tester cap (3). SPECIAL TOOL Pressure pump Fig 2
INSPECT Check     
7 Apply a test pressure to the engine cooling system for 2 minutes. NOTES
Do not exceed the specified test pressure.
Damage will occur otherwise to the engine
 
    cooling system.
IMPORTANT There should be no pressure loss within a period of 2 minutes.
HAND-HELD TESTER Test pressure for pressure-testing the cooling system
*BE20.30-P-1002-01D 
8 Perform visual check of coolant-carrying component parts and connecting points for condition and coolant loss. Where pressure loss is detected.  
INSTALLING Install     
9 Drain off overpressure via valve at pressure pump (4). SPECIAL TOOL Pressure pump Fig 2
10 Disconnect pressure pump (4) from tester cap (3). SPECIAL TOOL Pressure pump Fig 2
11 Unscrew tester cap (3) at coolant expansion reservoir (2). SPECIAL TOOL Test cap Fig 1
12 Switch off ignition.    
13 Check coolant level and antifreeze content of coolant; correct if necessary. FLUID SPECIFICATION Engine 177 in model 223
