Cab Modifications
2.13.2 Roof Panel Modifications
Installation and modification work to achieve specific refurbishments must be carried out with g reat care to safeguard the strength
of th e cab and ensure that its operation and protection are maintained.
When fitting assemblies or systems onto the roof (e.g., air-conditioning systems, spoilers), check that the weight of the appliance
does not exceed that permitted for the cab. These limits will be provided upon request depending on the assembly or system to
be fitted.
When making the opening, ensure that:
- the connection radii are not less than 50 mm;
- do not modify any ribs that may be present;
- do not change the curvature o f the roof.
Fitting a spoiler
The various version s designed by IVECO can be obtain ed from the local IVECO dealership with relevant instruct i ons for
installation. It is recommended that these versions are used as they are specifically checked.
If fitting a spoiler other than the one designed by IVECO, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for its installation.
Whenever national regulations require it, these in stallations must be inspected by the agencies responsible.
Modifications to the roof panel and the cab rear wall
In the event that the rear wall has to be fully removed - and the roof panel partially removed (e.g. motor caravans), the operation
must be carried out in accordance with the instructions below:
- make th e c ut as illustrated in Figure 2.11, takin g care to comply with the minimum joining radii indicated. Remove the structure
for the rear cross member at the level of the roof assembly, In order for the upper mounts of the seat belts to remain effective,
it is necessary to restore th e resistance with a suitable stru cture capable of ensuring the pillars will not deform.
For th i s a structure with co mpression strength of at least 800daN must be fitted;
- make the connection with the new structure by following the general instructions previously specified.
