BUILDING & MOUNTING THE STRUCTURES 3-23 E UROCARGO Euro 4/5 3.4.3 Heavy-duty service Table 3.5 shows the vehicles that can be used for these applications, with the minimum indications for the main sections of the subframe. Particular attention must be paid to observance of the prescriptions of a general character to ensure the vehicles are adequately stable in the phase of rear tipping. In the case of assembling tipping bodies on chassis fitted with brackets (for using different types of body), replace them with longitudi- nal and transversal plates, in the section between the driving axle suspension front support and the chassis frame rear end; or make provision to apply additional plates.
For models with two rear axles: - The boxed section for the longitudinal reinforcement section (see Figure 3.6) must involve the section between the rear edge and approximately 1300 mm in front of the centreline of the two axles. - The diagonal bracings must involve the zone between the centreline of the double axle and the rear end of the chassis frame. - The tipping support must be positioned not over 1400 mm from the centreline of the double axle.
