Dual circuit spring load proportioning valve (ABS)
This adjustment is made on each vehicle in the factory. It permits loading the vehicle or fitting standard bodies in compliance
with the deceleration and road holding characteristic required by the relevant EC Directives.
The adjustment and control data are given on the appropriate rating plate, whose location on the vehicle is given in the specific
literature.
Should it become necessary to adjust the braking load proportioning valve, this can be done following the instructions given below
(see Figure 2.17).
When replacement rear springs have been fitted it is necessary for the rear suspension to settle properly. To set the valve correctly
the suspension must be settled in before making any adjustments to the valve. Load the vehicle partially (approximately 2/3 of its
maximum weight) and make a few runs over a rough surface, braking a number of times while travelling forwards and while reversing.
-
Connect the pressure gauges 1 and 2 to the pressure test points 3 upstream and downstream of the braking load proportioning
valve.
- Loosen the clamping screw 8 of the proportioning valve adjustment lever 7.
- Apply adjustment load specific to each model to hole 9, after loading the engine axle to the specified reference value. Check
the IVECO workshop manuals for the required values.

- Tighten the clamping screw 8 to the prescribed torque of 16
÷
19 Nm.
- Press the brake pedal until the control pressure of 100 bar is obtained in the circuit upstream the corrector.
- Verify that the output pressure corresponds to the value shown on the load proportioning valve plate, corresponding to the
weight at ground of the rear axle.
