Title: Generator Radiator Coolant - Fill
Post by: Charlie G on May 15, 2017, 08:16:18 am
Is there a proper way for filling generator radiator? I see two valves that come off the top coolant tank that were closed, not quite sure how that works, also I see the expansion tank. I will be changing out the coolant in the generator. I could not find anything in the manuals.

Thanks

Those bleed air from the high points. Be very careful. If not done right you will overheat and shutdown.

Thanks Dave and Michelle. Michelle this link    "Procedure for bleeding the coolant system on Powertech Generators" does not seem to be working any other places could I find that other than calling Foretravel?
