ever
increasing ouaput
of
modem, high speed
diesel
engines, particularly those used
in
heavy
duty agricultural applications,
ha.~
created the need
for
an
inhibitor
in
the
cooling system.
During_manufaclure,
the
engine cooling system is
filled
with a high quality antifrce7.e and water so-
lution
to
which
is
added
the inhibitor. This inhibi-
tor
increases and
extends
the
protection offered
by
the
existing inhibitor already present in the anti-
freeze.
The
added
inhibitor will:
• Increase rust prevention.
• Reduce scale fonnation.
• Minimise
cylinder
wall erosion (pitting).
• Reduce foaming
of
the coolant.
As
the
chemical inhibitor works and protects the
system
it
gradually loses
it's
strength and must,

at
intervals with a meas-
ured dosage
to maintain the optimum protection
level.
The
chemical inhibitor
is
available in 16 fl.

(473
ml)
bottles from Ford New Holland deal-
ers.
A
throw-away,
spin-<>n
coolant filter is available.
The
filter canister, Figure

in addition to con-
taining the filter clement also contains inhibitor in
the form
of
a
pa.~te.
As coolant flows through the
filter, the
paste quickly dissolves and mixes with
the coolant
to
provide optimum protection be-
tween normal coolant change intervals.
IMPORT
ANT:
The
new
filter contains a
meas-
ure
of
chemical inhibitor
in
paste
form.
The
mea.~
ure
of
inhibitor and
the
.~ize
of
the filter element
are
matched to the

capacity
of
your

tor.
It
is
important that
this
filter
is
changed
every

hours
or
two
years, whichever occurs first,
if

system is to
be maintained.
The
use
of
a non-approved filter
may
jeopardize this protection.
