Recommendations for planning work
For proper work planning, the most appropriate body and chassis combination
should be determined. Only through close cooperation between the Body Builder,
client and HMC, will optimum results be achieved.
The most important factor will consist in the study of all documentation provided by
each of the parties and a detailed analysis of the requirements that the vehicle must
comply with, once the changes have been made in it.
In this way, we will proceed to the selection of the most appropriate chassis and
equipment in respect of:
-
Activity for which the vehicle is intended.
-
Characteristics of the roads in which the vehicle will circulate normally.
-
Observance of the laws and legal guidelines in Europe and in each country.
-
Technical limits values to respect, such as centre of gravity, wheelbase...
See chapter 2.3 "Technical limit values".
-
Characteristics of vehicle components, such as engine type, PTO, gearbox, etc.
-
Possible additional equipment that can be supplied from the factory with the
original vehicle, and its various settings and features.
-
Provide sufficient space to ensure the functioning and operational safety of
the additional equipment.
-
Appropriate selection of materials to be used.
-
Main dimensions of the vehicle after modification
-
Maximum gross weight and height according to laws of each country.
WARNING
Never exceed the carrying capacity of the vehicle. This can produce damage or
malfunction in some vehicle systems. In this case, the driver could lose control of
the vehicle and cause an accident.
WARNING
Changes must not be made to the steering or in the brake system. Incorrect
manipulation of these systems could cause vehicle malfunction. In this case, the
driver could lose the control of the vehicle and cause an accident.
The vehicles supplied by HMC comply with European CE Directives and national
standards in each country.
ing".
After the work has been carried out on the vehicle, the Body Builder must ensure
that the finished product continues to meet the standards. There are different var-
iants of vehicles supplied by HMC; an original vehicle with the features and dimen-
sions that can be adapted in the best way to achieve the final result should be
chosen.
