Now fill your cast iron radiator ready for use – see the images below

Unscrew the two top end caps- this will reveal a large hole at either end of the radiator.

Fill your Radiator up with the water/glycol mix.

Start filling from the one end like below - slowly so there are no airlocks

When the radiator is full put the bush back on the left side and raise the radiator
at an angle like below and carry on filling slowly so there are no airlocks



You must leave a 2% gap in the radiator to allow for expansion.
