Bulletin Summary
Product Improvement: Introduction of ZF/BOSCH bevel gear in front axle steering system As from the cut in VINs onwards, Van Hool is using again a ZF/BOSCH manufactured bevel gear instead of a PAILTON bevel gear in the front axle steering system. Because only the ZF/BOSCH bevel gear will be supplied as spare part, the ZF/BOSCH bevel gear should also be installed on older vehicles with PAILTON bevel gear whenever a replacement is necessary. This bulletin outlines how to change a bevel gear.
About Technical Service Bulletins
A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
