COOLING
SYSTEM
1.
Cooling
water
As
cooling
water,
use
soft
water
with
least
impurity
content
such
as
tap
water
(potable
water)
or
rainwater,
and
never
use
hard
water
or
foul
water.
Use
of
hard
water
or
water
containing
much
impurity
will
lead
to
collection
of
scale
in
the
engine
and
heat
exchanger
with
resultant
decline
in
cooling
effects.
2.
Antifreeze
In
cold
districts,
care
should
be
taken
to
prevent
cooling
water
from
freezing.
Cooling
water,
when
frozen,
expands
to
break
the
heat
exchanger
and
the
cylinder
block,
and
it
is
essential
that
antifreeze
be
added
to
cooling
water
in
a
quantity
proportional
to
the
lowest
temperature
of
the
district.
It
is
recommended
that
the
antifreeze
mixture
be
used
throughout
the
year.
*Antifreeze
of
poor
will
cause
corrosion
antifreeze
prepared
by
quality
or
without
rust
inhibitor
of
the
cooling
system.
Always
use
a
reliable
maker.
*Make
sure
that
the
cooling
system
of
the
engine
is
cleaned
well
before
adding
antifreeze.
*Recommended
antifreeze
for
year
round
use
is
ZEREX
or
PRESTONE
with
rust
inhibitor.
*Thoroughly
mix
the
antifreeze
and
water
before
adding
to
the
cooling
system.

3.
Fresh
water
cooling
system
antifreeze
concentration
be
a
temperature
which
is
about
the
actual
atmospheric
tem-
The
system
consists
of
a
sea
water
pump
which
pumps
raw
sea
water
through
a
heat
exchanger
to
remove
heat
from
the
coolant.
The
raw
water
is
discharged
overboard
through
the
exhaust
line.
The
engine
coolant
(fresh
water
with
or
without
antifreeze)
is
circulated
by
the
fresh
water
pump
in
continuous
circuit,
pumped
through
the
cylinder
block,
cylinder
head,
heat
exchanger
and
back
to
the
fresh
water
pump.
