Installation of tail lifts
When applying tail lifts, observe the maximum allowed load limits on the rear axle of the vehicle and
the minimum load for the front axle (see paragraph 1.15). If this is not possible, shorten the rear
overhang.
NOTE
Fastening of the tail lift must be performed with a structure allowing the strains to be distributed, in particular for specific versions
without a suitable sub-frame (e.g. vans, trays with cross members).
The size of the reinforcing profiles to be used can be determined:
-
by means of Table 3.11 for standard rear overhangs,
-
by means of instructions in Figure 3.22 for other overhangs and/or with specific tail lifts (e.g. aluminium tail lifts).
In the first case, the flexing moments caused on the chassis in accordance to the capacity of the tail lifts have already determined
average values; in the second case these moments must be calculated each time.

Table 3.11 shows that the subframe material yield limit is 360 N/mm

.
NOTE
Connection between chassis and sub-frame must be created with shear resistant plates, particularly for overhangs longer than 1200
mm; these plates, at a maximum distance of 400 mm, must be placed in the area of the overhang and up to the front support of
the rear suspension.
