Reinforcement of the serial subframe code P60 for demount-
able deposit skip on the ballpoints

The front platform subframe - chassis frame - interface must be rein-
forced, if a demountable deposit skip or similar implements should
be mounted on the ballpoints.
This can be done using the hole pattern of the chassis frame with a
fastening part (Figure 4.71, page 118). Therefore a holding plate
must be cut off of the platform subframe and holes must be inserted
(see Figure 4.72, page 119). These kind of implements / bodies
must be attached at the cross members of the platform subframe to
avoid overloading of the ballpoints when the vehicle will be raised by
the implement. To reduce the forces at the ballpoints U-bolts can be
used (see Figure 4.70).
