2. INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT
2.1 ADJUSTING ROOF SPOILER
Note:
Correct adjustment of the roof spoiler is
essential to minimise fuel consumption.
1. Place the vehicle on a level and horizontal
surface. Make sure that in the case of a
tractor/semi-trailer combination the tractor
is straight in front of the semi-trailer.
2. Determine the centreline of the vehicle and
put a slat on the superstructure roof
protruding into the cab direction.
3. Put another slat (as a tangent) onto the
outer roof spoiler edge (P) pointing into the
direction of the superstructure.
4. Both slats should cross at half the distance
(

the start of the superstructure.
The roof spoiler height can be adjusted
using adjusting mechanism (B). For the roof
spoiler adjusting range, see main group
”Technical data”.
