Traffic acting Ministers, Deputy Prime Minister a. shlesers annex 3 of the Cabinet of Ministers of 17 august 2004, the Regulation No 725 Essential technical requirements for vehicle conversion no PO box 1 2 1 requirements. General requirements 1.1. Rebuilding it is recommended to use the brand and model of the vehicle manufacturer's parts production, assemblies and Assembly of vehicle dimensions 1.2 after the conversion may not exceed the Cabinet of Ministers of 29 June 2004, regulations No 571 "road rules" the limit values laid down. This does not apply to special vehicles and transport means are rebuilt-indivisible bulky goods 1.3. vehicle mass after rebuilding must not exceed the following values: 1) specified by the vehicle manufacturer technical permissible maximum mass; Road 2) the limit values specified in the rules, unless the vehicle is rebuilt indivisible heavyweight freight 1.4. Passenger car full of mass after conversion will not change, unless you have set up a conversion to body, to which the vehicle manufacturer's plate laden mass differs from the certificate of registration of the vehicle in full weight. In such cases, the full weight of the car is considered a mass in the body set up by the manufacturer's plate. Passenger car mass are changed only if conversion to change the number of seats. Mass of the vehicle is determined by weighing. Note the. Mass of a passenger car is a fully equipped vehicle mass with leaders without passengers and cargo. It includes: 1) the mass of a passenger car; 2) the mass of the driver (75 kg); 3) cooling liquid mass; 4) oil weight; 5) mass of fuel (fuel must be filled to 90% of the capacity stated by the manufacturer); 6) the mass of the tool kit; 7) spare wheel (s). Note the. The density ρ = 0.74 petrol g/cm3; ρ = density of diesel 0.83 g/cm3; liquefied petroleum gas density ρ = 0.65 g/cm3 1.5. Truck, buses, trailers and semi-trailers full mass, making the category restructuring is not changed. If the category rebuilding for trucks, buses, trailers and semi-trailers full of mass is considered agreed conversion technical project contains the laden mass of the vehicle conversion. Truck, bus, trailer and semi-trailer unladen weight after any type of conversion is determined, the vehicle weighed. Note the. Truck and bus curb weight is a fully equipped vehicle mass with leaders without passengers and shippers. It includes: 1) a truck or bus weight; 2) the mass of the driver (75 kg); 3) cooling liquid mass; 4) oil weight; 5) mass of fuel (fuel must be filled to 90% of the capacity stated by the manufacturer); 6) the mass of the tool kit; 7) spare wheel (s). Trailer and semi-trailer unladen weight includes: 1) the mass of the trailer (semi-trailer); 2) mass of fuel (fuel must be filled to 90% of the capacity stated by the manufacturer); 3) the mass of the tool kit; 4) spare wheel (s).
