COOLING
SYSTEM
Volvo Coolant VCS
Volvo Coolant VCS should be used only. (For correct

mixture, see page Coolant).
Coolant
Use only Volvo VCS coolant when topping up or changing
coolant. Do not mix different coolants or use anti-corrosion
additives as this could damage the engine.
When using concentrated coolant combined with water, the
mixture should be 40-60 % concentrate and 60-40 % water. The
percentage of coolant in the mixture must not be below 40 %; see
the table below.
Anti-freeze protection down to
Percentage of coolant concentrate
-20 C
40 %
35 C
50 %
46 C
60 %
The coolant concentrate must not be mixed with water that has a
high lime (hard water), salt or metal content.
The water for the cooling system must also meet the following
requirements:
Part name
Value
Total amount of solids
< 340 ppm
Total hardness
< 9.5 dH
Chlorine
< 40 ppm
Sulfate
< 100 ppm
pH value
5.59
Silicate
< 20 mg SiO2/litre
Iron
< 0.10 mg FE/litre
Manganese
< 0.05 mg Mn/litre
Electrical conductive capacity
< 500 S/cm
Organic content, CODMn
< 15 mg/litre
Use premixed coolant if you do not know the quality of the water.
Do not blend different premixed coolants as this could damage
the engine.

Service position 1
Op. no. 191-021
WARNING
If work must be done on the machine before it has cooled down;
beware of hot fluids and hot components that can cause severe
burns.
1
Place the machine on firm and level ground. Apply the

parking brake.
Lower the stabilisers.
Retract the backhoe boom fully into travelling position.

Engage the backhoe boom lock with the backhoe boom lock
switch. On machines equipped with pilot control, the boom
lock will be engaged automatically, see 191, Backhoe, boom
lock.
NOTICE

V1083369
WARNING
When servicing the machine with the loader boom raised,
the safety strut must always be placed in support position.
An unsupported loader boom can drop suddenly and cause
serious personal injuries.
Fig.4 Service position 1

1 backhoe in travelling position, loader boom
raised
Lift up the loader boom and secure it with the loader safety
strut. See 191, Loader boom, safety strut.
5
Stop the engine.
Attach a yellow-black warning label or a red flag to the

steering wheel while service work is in progress. Add the
message "Service work: Forbidden to start the engine".
WARNING
If the pressure is not released before opening the system,
oil under high pressure will jet out, resulting in serious
personal injuries.
Carefully release the pressure in pressure lines to avoid
risks. See 191, Safety for work on hydraulic systems.
Remove the ignition key.
Turn off the battery disconnect switch.

Service
The machine must receive thorough care to function to the lowest
cost. Intervals for maintenance and lubrication refer to the
machine under normal environment and operating conditions.
Maintenance work described in this service manual can be done
by a therefor trained person. A brand name authorized workshop
should be used for other adjustments and repairs.

A way of quickly warming up the transmission oil to the
correct temperature is to have the parking brake on, service
(foot) brake on, start the engine and keep it ticking over at
low idle speed (900 rpm), select the 4th gear and move the
forward/reverse lever to forward. Rev the engine for short
periods to a maximum of 1500-1700 rpm, to bring the oil up
to working temperature.
NOTICE
Do not exceed a maximum duration of 30 seconds each
time. After this 30 second period, put the forward/reverse
lever in neutral for 15 seconds, then repeat the procedure.

Op. no.
NOTICE
When the engine has been stopped, there remains an
accumulated pressure in the system. The remaining pressure in
the system must be lowered, so-called depressurization
(releasing pressure), before hose connections, plugs, etc. are
opened in the hydraulic system or brake system.
WARNING
If the pressure is not released before opening the system, oil
under high pressure will jet out, resulting in serious personal
injuries.
