Maintaining your excavator’s cooling system is critical for preventing overheating and extending engine life. Here are 5 key tips:
- Regular Thermostat Checks: A faulty thermostat (e.g., OTTO’s Zx330 6Hk1T Thermostat Pad) can cause coolant flow issues. Replace it every 2,000 hours or as recommended by the manufacturer.
- Inspect Coolant Levels: Low coolant leads to overheating. Use OEM-approved fluids and flush the system annually.
- Check for Leaks: Inspect gasket seals (like the Cx130B 4Jj1 Thermostat Cover Gasket) for wear. Even minor leaks can escalate into major problems.
- Clean Radiator Fins: Clogged fins reduce heat dissipation. Use compressed air or a soft brush to remove debris.
- Monitor Fan Performance: A malfunctioning fan clutch or belt can disrupt cooling. Replace worn components immediately.
Investing in high-quality spare parts like OTTO’s thermostat series ensures reliable performance.
