1.1 Introduction
Load securing, for example of aggregates, during the freight transport on road is required by law.
Marcolin Covering s.r.l. has developed the Ecotype
Covering System, which fulfils the legal obligation and satisfies practical
and functional needs of its user.
This manual provides all the necessary instructions for a safe application and for keeping fully functional the Ecotype
Covering System through the planned periodic maintenance.
Thank you for having chosen the Ecotype
Covering System of Marcolin Covering s.r.l.!
1.2
Important information if purchasing the “lowered cable system”
The Ecotype Covering is also available with “lowered cables”.
The system is intended for lowering the cable run of the upper steel cable which pulls the covering system. The cable run is
lowered by approx. 22 mm under the body upper edge compared to the standard cable run which is approx. 11 mm over the
body upper edge.
This option aims at fulfilling the requirements of our Customers and eliminating the breakage problems of the steel cable as
a result of cable crushing during the normal loading operations.
In case of installation of the “lowered cable” covering system
all the height indications
mentioned in this installation
manual regarding the positioning of the machinery on the front side and the tension plates or guide pulleys on the rear side
have to be increased by 33 mm
.
See details in paragraphs 3.1.2 and 3.3.3 .
