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 5.5–9
Silicate < 20 mg SiO2/litre
Iron < 0.10 mg FE/litre
Manganese < 0.05 mg Mn/litre
Electrical conductive capacity < 500 µS/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.

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.
2 Lower the stabilisers.
3 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

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.

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.

Conditions for service and parking brake test

• Brake test must only be done within an area where it cannot
cause accidents (risk of being run into from behind etc.).
• Acceptable values can only be obtained if the test is carried out
on dry asphalt, dry concrete or other similar surfaces.
• Make sure that the working area around the machine is clear
from people.
• The machine must not be loaded.
• The stabilisers must be retracted.
• Wheel chocks etc. must be removed from the wheels.
Service brake, checking

Carry out the brake test as required. Always use the seat belt
when using the machine.
1 The service (foot) brake should stop the machine at a speed
of 32 km/h (20 mph) within 16 m (54 ft 6 in), or from a speed
of 40 km/h (25 mph) within a distance of 22 m (72 ft).
2 If the machine does not stop within these distances,
troubleshoot and repair the service brake system.
Parking brake, checking

Carry out the brake test as required. Always use the seat belt
when using the machine.
3 Start the engine.
4 Apply the parking brake. The parking brake control lamp
illuminates on the front instrument panel.

5 Press on the spring plate (1) with a suitable tool, in the
direction that the arrow indicates, to activate the
transmission. When it is activated, the parking brake lamp
on the front panel should switch off.
6 Select the 3rd gear and move the forward/reverse lever to
forward.
7 Increase the speed of the engine to 1500 rpm. If the machine
does not move, the parking brake is working correctly.
8 Press the brake pedal, release the throttle pedal and put the
forward/reverse lever in neutral position.
9 Stop the engine.
10 Release the parking brake and apply it again for normal
parking brake functionality and to deactivate the
transmission.
