Australian Standards Relating to Installing Vehicle Frontal Protection Systems (VFPS): AS 4876.1-2002
a) Do not attach V.F.P.S. to vehicle using anchorages not intended for this purpose (e.g. engine mounting bolts), other than those
specified by the V.F.P.S. manufacturer in this instruction.
b) Do not use this product for any vehicle make or model other than those specified by the V.F.P.S. manufacturer (as above).
c) Do not remove any plaques or labels from the V.F.P.S.
d) Do not modify the structure of the V.F.P.S. in any way.
•Read instructions fully before commencing fitment.
•Use extreme caution in handling the radar. Damage caused by mishandling
is not warrantable.
•A slimline number plate is recommended for improved approach angle.
•The fitment of TJM products does not nullify the OE manufacturer's
operating guidelines and/or warnings. Ensure you are familiar with and
adhere to the usage instructions specified by the manufacturer in the
owner's manual or other official documentation.
•For vehicles with active park assist, ensure you read and understand the OE
manufacturer’s guidelines/limitations/warnings for parking aids. The driver
of the vehicle is ultimately responsible for its operation.
•Left hand and Right hand components are determined as seated in the
vehicle.
•Check for (and remove) any build up in all captive nuts fitted to the FPS.
•Be aware that a number of government / fleet departments require that the
tow points be painted red.
•Ensure that the “Rated Recovery Point Label” is affixed alongside the
compliance label, in the driver’s side doorjamb.
•When fitting accessories to TJM products (ie. driving lights and aerials),
ensure suitable washer plates are used under the mounting surface that
allow the accessory to be secured in a way that prevents it from damaging
the product.
•When removing protective coatings, ensure all new edges are deburred,
clean any swarf from the area and apply rust preventative to exposed
surfaces.
