GENERAL INFORMATION
The AL-KO lightweight chassis has been perfected by
many years of research and development, supported by an
exhaustive test programme.
Manufactured from high quality steel, the chassis has extra
deep sections to provide strength at points of maximum
stress. Large elongated holes are punched in the longitudinal
chassis members, to reduce weight to a minimum. Each hole
incorporates a return ange to maintain the required strength
and provide rigidity in the extra deep sections.
The chassis frame is of a bolted construction which allows
replacement of individual parts should the need arise.
AL-KO Chassis and axles are manufactured with the xing
positions for a range of chassis accessories already included.
Some of these accessories are included as standard from the
vehicle manufacturer and are positioned for correct and safe
usage of these products.
For further details on the range of accessory products that
can be tted and used with the AL-KO Chassis, please refer
to the Accessories section at the rear of this document,
pages 37 - 43.

therefore may invalidate the chassis warranty.
