– Printed 603.95.994 – 1 Ed. - Base 05/2015
● Protect the wheel rim mounting surfaces on the hubs and the contact areas of the locking lugs/wheel studs;
● ensure adequate protection of brake discs.
The electronic components and modules must be removed.
b) On engines and their electric and electronic components
Appropriate precautions must be taken to protect:
● engine wiring and ground contacts;
● the sensor/actuator side connectors and wiring side;
● the sensors/actuators on the flywheel and on the flywheel rpm sensor mounting bracket;
● pipes (plastic and metal) of the fuel circuit;
● complete basic diesel filter;
● the ECU and its base;
● the entire internal part of the sound-proof cover (injectors, rails, pipes);
● the common rail pump and its control valve;
● the vehicle electric pump;
● tank containers;

Note
When the painting operation has been completed, and prior to oven drying ( max. temperature. 80
°
C), all parts which may be
damaged by exposure to heat, must be removed or protected.
2.4 WHEELBASE MODIFICATION
Variation of the wheelbase is only permitted upon specific approval of IVECO.
In any case, the following must always be taken into account:
● lengthening the wheelbase has a negative effect on the steering (turning circle, effort applied on the steering wheel and vehicle
reaction times as contained in the ECE Regulation or EC Directive in force);
● shortening the wheelbase will have a negative effect on braking.
2.5 REAR OVERHANG MODIFICATION
Any rear chassis lengthening must be explicitly authorized by IVECO.
