2.5 Driveshaft
2.5.1 Power Take Off
Gear Box add-on - Auxiliary
Propeller Drive Shaft
CAUTIONS:
Make sure that an inhibitor is fitted
to any modified vehicle that uses
the prop-shaft to power auxillary
equipment.
The only modification to the engine
control system (throttle, powertrain
control module and fuel pump)
recommended by the manufacturer
is the addition of an engine (RPM)
controller.
Do not weld or join onto any part of
the axle assembley.
The transmission oil temperature
must not exceed 130° during
operation of the Power Take Off
Where power is to be taken from the prop-shaft
for accessory drive, the engine controller can be
used in the same way as for the Front End
Accessory Drive (FEAD).
Refer to: 3.3 Accessory Drive (page 77).
Exceeding the recommended power take off
ratings may result in the engine over heating.
If the driveshaft is modified, it must be balanced
to a limit of 80gmm at 5000rpm and the
installation must not have universal joint angles
exceeding 4°. The gearbox output included angle
must be no more than 1°.

2.6 Brake System
2.6.1 General
The Brake System must be fully functional when
the vehicle conversion is completed. The vehicle
brake operating modes must be checked,
including warning system and parking brakes.
Brakes are certified to 71/320EEC and ECE R13
requirements as amended.
WARNING: Do not restrict the airflow
and cooling to the brake system
CAUTION: Spoilers and wheel covers
must not affect the brake cooling
performance.
NOTE: Do not obstruct the view of the brake
fluid reservoir level
NOTE: The donor vehicle brake fluid reservoir is
translucent so that it is possible to check the level
of fluid without opening the reservoir which will
reduce the risk of contamination.
The brake fluid reservoir must remain accessible
for servicing and for adding brake fluid.
