Anyone here able to translate the second page, labeled 3-1, from the following document?

http://fvwa.sitefactory.fi/data/10.pdf

It's a manual translated from German to Finnish on how to replace the frame head on a type 1. Google translate fails miserably. I think what it is indicating in the left side middle diagram is that the beam should be angled forwards 2 degrees. Does Etuakspeliputki mean the beam's cross member where the torsion leaves reside? I think I have most of the rest of it figured out.

Thanks,

You use a piece of pasteboard to mark that sumbitch, weld that sumbitch yunder, drink a half case of Natural Light for 7 consecutive days then Finnish welding that sumbitch up when your sober.


Is that redneck enough for you? Grin

If we're translating to redneck, forget the welding.  Just get long sheet metal screws and caulking.

"etuakseliputki" in this context is infact one of the torsion tubes (don't know if that's proper English).

(forum you got it from is our "redneck" forum  Cheesy)
