– Printed 603.95.994 – 1 Ed. - Base 05/2015
Note
Any other solutions must be explicitly authorised by IVECO.
Observations of payload
The static load on the tow hook must not exceed the load allowed on the rear axle of the vehicle. Furthermore, the minimum
weight on the front axle must be respected as indicated in Chapter 1.15 .
Increase of tow weight
As regards tow vehicles, IVECO may evaluate - in certain cases and for particular applications - the possibility to authorise greater
tow weights than those normally allowed.
These authorisations include the towing conditions and, when necessary, provide the instructions relevant to any vehicle modifica-
tions or work required: standard crossbar reinforcements, or installation of a reinforced crossbar when available, or adjustments to
the braking system.
The drawbar coupling must be suited for the new use, and its connection flange must coincide with that of the crossbar.
Fix the crossbar to the chassis by using flanged head screws and nuts or hex head screws of 8.8 min. class.
Use anti-unscrewing systems.
Plates
Some countries require a plate to be applied on the towing device, which must list maximum tow load and maximum vertical load
allowed.
If not already mounted, the Outfitter shall see to its manufacture and installation.
