3.3 Driving system installation
The covering driving system must be placed on the front side of the tipper body next to the cab guard.
The driving system is available either hand-operated or motor-operated; in any case the installation process is similar.
3.3.1 Versatility of the covering system
In order to meet the various market requirements our covering system has been designed and manufactured for being
installed with the driving unit either on the right or on the left side of the cab guard.
The procedure is the same for both assembly configurations, only the positioning of the driving system requires a special
attention.
Note:
Normally, installing the covering system, the positioning of the driving system should be on the left side (in relation to
the driving direction) of the cab guard, as it is proved that in this position the driving unit is easy accessible for the
driver when he gets out of the vehicle, and this especially in case of hand-operated covering system.
In this manual, reference will be made to standard assembly of the covering system, which is on the left of the cab guard.
For installing on the opposite side, carry out the mirror-imaged activities on the opposite side.
3.3.2 Working and preparation of the cab
guard with “STANDARD CABLES”
The type of work which has to be done on the cab guard is the same for both versions available for the covering system
(manual or motorised version).
WARNING!
First, check the taper of the body, and specifically
that the front side of the body is aligned with
the edge of the side wall.
After determining the positioning of the left and right supports, it is possible to intervene on the body for the installation of the
cover.
