▶ If using brackets to mount aesthetic studs positioned between the rim / lug or stud, or if using
rims thicker than the original, geometric mounting functionality must be ensured through ap-
propriate lengths of stud threading in the locking hole.
2.15 WORK ON THE BRAKING SYSTEM
General information
The braking system, together with its components, is of fundamental importance in terms of safety.
▶ Any modification to the braking system requires authorisation from IVECO, it being understood
that no changes may be made to the following parts: brake cylinders and callipers, adjustment
units and valves, parking brake, brake control and auxiliary systems.
If the national standards provide it, the vehicle must be presented to the competent authority for inspection.
Brake pipes
▶ It is absolutely forbidden to weld the pipes.
Note
In the case of changes to the cantilever, the brake lines involved should preferably be replaced with new pipes and in one piece. If
it is not possible to use one-piece pipes, the couplings to be used must be of the same type as the original ones in the rest of the
system.
In the event of replacements the minimum internal dimensions, material and curvature radii of the pre-existing pipes must be re-
spected.
For procurement please contact IVECO Assistance Service, whereas for assembly the directions in IVECO STD 17-2403 must be
complied with.
▶ The total or partial painting of the brake pipes must be absolutely avoided and, for this purpose,
appropriate masking of the pipes must be provided.
Metal pipes
Additions and replacements must envisage:
● for materials, dimensions, couplings: Standard ISO 4038
● radii of curvature (referring to the centre line of the pipe ⌀ = 4.76 mm): min 25 mm
● tightening torque:
■ stiff pipes, couplings M10x1 and M12x1: 14÷18 Nm
■ hoses, male couplings M10x1: 17÷20 Nm
