  1. ✔    First the outboard valve of the inlet and outlet of the (outside) cooling water system is closed.

  3. ✔    As follows we start the generator and fill the weed filter with antifreeze until cooling water comes out of the (above water) outlet.
  4. ✔    After this, the generator is turned off again.
  5. ✔    After the generator is stopped, we open the outboard valve of the exhaust of the cooling water system for about 4 to 5 seconds.
  6. ✔    After it is closed again, the weed filter is filled with antifreeze and the inlet tap is opened again until the weed filter is (just) empty.
  7. ✔    After that the tap is closed again and the weed filter is filled with antifreeze and the lid is put back on (hand tightened).
