3.10 Loading Tailboard

For attaching a loading tailboard, it is required to consider the following instructions:

The permitted rear-axle load must not be exceeded.
Consider minimum front-axle load (i. e. 30% of the total vehicle weight).
Check the stability.
Calculate the load distribution including all extras.
If required, shorten attachment length and rear overhang.
Guide subframe as far as possible to the front and realise a force-locked connection with the chassis frame.
Standard box-type delivery vans require no subframe.
A stabilizer bar is necessary for the front and rear axle.
If possible, use only hydraulic supporting devices. Do not lift the vehicle with the supporting device (chassis may be damaged)
Load distance max. 500 mm
Security
The regulations for the prevention of industrial accidents and the EC Machinery Directive are to be adhered to. Check for underrun protection and lighting devices.
The standard vehicle can be provided ex-works with the required extras item 1.3).

Vehicles with double cab may only be provided with a loading tailboard in special cases. The mounting is only permitted with the permission of Volkswagen AG.

Maximum load-carrying capacity and profile dimensions:

The specified minimum dimensions refer to normal operating conditions and applications without overhang extension.

3.10.1 Longitudinal member reinforcement with unladen front axle

For example, when working with a lifting hoist, the entire vehicle may be lifted on 4 hydraulic pillars -the wheels lose all contact with the ground. Due to the heavy weight of the front of the vehicle, this causes impermissibly high tension in the longitudinal frame members in the area of the front support.

A reinforcement of the chassis frame is essential for such applications. To this end, fit a mounting frame through the rear wall of the cab under the base of the seats and secure this with an additional console and a bolt connection. A suggestion as to how this can be implemented can be given on request by the responsible department.

An additonal battery as per PR-No. 8FV (location underbase of co-driver's seat) is not possible with this configuration and also for the LT 46.
