8 INSTALLATION OF THE DH-SM MOUNTING BRACKETS
•
The height of the mounting brackets is determined as detailed in section 7.
•
Also the longitudinal position of these brackets, the installation parameters most, mob1...3 [see section 5] are determined by the
INSTALLATION DRAWING. [Figure 8.1]
•
Preferentially ALWAYS use existing chassis perforations, and avoid drilling new ones. Small variations are allowed to line up the
brackets with existing chassis perforations.
NOTICE
When planning for chassis perforations, check and make sure you comply with the instructions of the OEM vehicle manufacturer.
[Figure 7.6]
•
If no installation drawing is used, position the brackets so that they absorb the forces induced by the lift mechanism and the weight of
the platform in optimal way, conform the instructions in this section [Figure 8.2
– 8.4].
•
In case of 3 mounting brackets per side [Figure 8.2]:
1. The rearmost bracket must be positioned to support the rearmost roller in work position, position [1]. D1 is measured from the
rear roller towards the rear of the vehicle.
2. The front bracket must be positioned to support the rear rollers in travel position, position [3]. D2 is measured from the end stop
bolt in the slide tube towards the rear of the vehicle.
