5.2 CABIN BRACKET COLLISION ABILITY
The cabin bracket has a built-in safety feature that enables the cabin to move back 400
mm in case of a collision. Depending on the severity of the collision there are two
situations.
– The safety feature is used. This means that the cabin has moved compared to the
chassis with a maximum distance of 400 mm. The cabin is still attached to the
chassis.
– The safety feature is used fully before the collision stopped. As a result the bolt of
the cabin bracket breaks. If this has happened the cabin is loose from the chassis.
