TRAXON Brief Description
The TRAXON transmission system is an electro-pneumatically shifted transmission with 12 gears and an
automated dry clutch. Shifting and clutch operations are controlled electronically and carried out electro-
pneumatically.
For an application of the TRAXON transmission system, the following requirements must be met:
▪ Electronic engine-management system
▪ CAN signal communication
▪ ABS or Brake Assist System
▪ Voltage supply
▪ Air connection
10_004913_01
Due to the automated clutch, there is no clutch pedal installed and, thus, the clutch does not need to be
actuated by the driver. The gear shifting is done by the transmission control unit.
The driver has the option to drive the vehicle with the TRAXON transmission system in the automatic
mode as well as in the manual mode. In the manual mode, the gear is selected by the driver.
In the automatic mode, the gears are selected and changed by the transmission control unit; however, the
driver can intervene at any time. The driver-information system shows all necessary system functions, e.
g. neutral, gear shift, clutch overload and diagnostic information.

The transmission system consists of the transmission (1) and the components needed to automate the
system. The transmission control unit (electronics, valve/sensor module) (2), INTARDER (3) and ConAct
(clutch actuation unit) (4) are integrated in the transmission.
As an option, ZF offers a range selector (7) for the transmission system.

Due to the vehicle system integration, TRAXON can dispense with additional, inherent peripheral
components and instead uses the vehicle-end systems, such as the engine electronics with the brake
pedal (5) and the accelerator pedal (gas pedal) (6), the electronic braking system with wheel-speed
sensors, etc.
Integration of the TRAXON into the overall vehicle system is realized by networked vehicle electronics via a
CAN bus system.
The interdependencies of the systems are investigated within the context of the vehicle integration
meetings.
The transmission system consists of a constant-mesh, 3-speed main transmission, a splitter group (S/G)
and downstream range change group (R/C) in planetary design. Synchronization is implemented via
engine control and transmission brake.
The splitter group and range change group are conventionally synchronized.
The TRAXON transmission has two countershafts; one with the lubricating pump, the other with the
transmission brake adapted. This compact, lightweight design ensures a good distribution of torque, less
load on the gearings, low friction in the oil (splashing) and therefore greater efficiency.

The propulsion engine's torque is transferred to the transmission via the input shaft. Constant K1 or K2
symmetrically transmits the torque to the two countershafts. The main shaft bundles the input torque of the
two countershafts and transmits it to the planetary stage (PL). The planet carrier is connected to the output
flange which diverts the output torque.
In the direct gear, input shaft and main shaft are coupled "directly" with each other. This results in
minimum power transmission losses.

The functions required for steering and/or controlling the transmission are performed by the integrated
mechatronics modules. The individual mechatronics modules are installed in the transmission from above.
The modules are electrically connected via the integrated plug connections (refer to Fig. 2.6, Transmission
actuator/Mechatronics system diagram).

The air-controlled transmission shift cylinders and the clutch are controlled and/or actuated via the valve
block (1) with its 14 individual solenoid valves.
The sensor module (2) records the gear positions and transmission input speed as well as the transmission
oil temperature. Additionally, there are separate sensors recording the air pressure (integrated in the valve
block), clutch position and the transmission output speed.
The selection module (3) selects the gate and thereby releases the shift fork.
The transmission electronics are integrated in the transmission control unit (4) which establishes the
electrical connection to individual actuators and sensors. It includes the software functions for steering/
controlling the transmission and clutch.

The ConAct (Concentric Clutch Actuator) is a concentric clutch actuation unit for push-type clutches.
A travel sensor reports the clutch's actual position to the control unit.
The use of a ConAct requires the use of a push-type clutch. The ConAct is integrated into the
transmission's bell housing and cannot be accessed without removing the transmission.
The clutch can be engaged in a very finely controlled manner for sensitive starting and maneuvering.
For very quick clutch actuation, steering velocities appropriate to the situation can be ensured, if required,
by modifying the opening and closing times and/or clock frequencies.
Option: The driver is warned about total clutch wear in good time.
The peripheral components listed here have not been certified to IEC 61508.

This ZF range selector contains the electronics required for recording, transmitting and controlling. The
communication is executed with 250 kBd, 500 kBd on request.
The positions of the ZF range selector are recorded via a sensor matrix and converted into CAN signals by
means of the electronics incorporated in the ZF range selector.
In addition to capturing the driver's request, an input signal and an output signal can be connected to the
range selector. The definitions for the input or output-connected components and their wiring should be
coordinated with ZF on demand.
If the range selector output is used for actuating a component, the ground/earth of this component must
always be looped back to the range selector.
The definition of corresponding realizations must be coordinated with ZF.

The TRAXON transmission system issues signals for driver information. Details of the scope of driver
information signals intended for use must be clarified with ZF Friedrichshafen AG.
The driver information signals contain specific instructions and/or messages about the current operating
condition of the transmission system.
▪ Messages about the operating condition are e. g.:
– Automatic/Manual
– Maneuvering
– Current gear
– Clutch overload
– Insufficient air pressure
▪ Instructions are e.g.:
– Select neutral using range selector
– Take foot off accelerator pedal
The required scope of signals is selected and combined from the total number of available individual
signals in consultation with ZF.
Several options are available for the transmission of the individual driver information signals:
▪ A special CAN message defined in consultation with ZF in which e.g. every individual piece of driver
information is transmitted with two bit respectively.
▪ Integrated into CAN diagnosis message DM1 acc. to SAE J1939-73.
▪ Direct control of a buzzer (via CAN or a digital output of the transmission control unit).
▪ Control of the driver-information system via CAN.
Depending on the mode of transmission, it is possible to transmit either all driver information signals or
only a selected number of currently active signals at the same time.
One or several modes of transmission can be assigned to each of the used driver information signals in
consultation with ZF.
A clutch overload message can e.g. be sent to the buzzer as well as the driver-information system, while an
Automatic message is only transmitted to the driver-information system.
In addition to these driver information signals, error or transmission failure notifications can also be
transmitted.
On the driver-information system, these notifications lead to special icons being displayed, such as STOP or
a wrench.
The INTARDER is a hydrodynamic, wear-free transmission brake integrated into the transmission system.
The system concept, structure, mode of operation, control elements, functional variants, peripherals and
safety functions as well as notes regarding installation and diagnosis are described in the Chapter
INTARDER.
The INTARDER and the TRAXON transmission share a common oil supply. Oil fill quantities are specified in
the Chapter Technical data.
The TRAXON transmission with integrated INTARDER may only be filled with the oils released as per the
List of Lubricants TE-ML 02.
The List of Lubricants TE-ML 02 provides information about the exact oil specification as well as the oil
change intervals.
An oil/coolant heat exchanger is attached to the INTARDER and is included in the engine cooling system's
water circuit.
Information regarding water quality, coolant and pressures is described in the Chapter Cooling.
The electronics integrated into the INTARDER have an electrical interface (external cable) to the vehicle
wiring. There is no direct electrical connection to TRAXON.
For circuit diagrams and wiring plans, refer to Annex.
The INTARDER electronics contain a CAN interface according to SAE J1939. Signal exchange with the
other system-compatible vehicle electronics takes place via this interface.
The signal contents and signal specification must be agreed with ZF Friedrichshafen AG.

The basic function includes recording all signals needed for the function. This includes signals of sensors
that are integrated in the transmission system as well as available, important vehicle-end information
about functions that is exchanged between the vehicle and the TRAXON transmission control unit (TCU)
via CAN1 (driveline CAN).
Via CAN1 (driveline CAN), further important information about functions is exchanged between the elec-
tronic systems on board of the vehicle and the TRAXON transmission control unit (TCU).
The standard application for the TRAXON transmission system involves data exchange via an additional
CAN interface, CAN3 (ZF-CAN), with the ZF components to record range selector information. This CAN
bus link is operated separately from CAN1 (vehicle CAN).
Once the ignition is switched on, the system is initialized and the sensors and actuators are checked for the
absence of errors. The characteristic parameters for clutch and transmission that are required for operation
are initialized. The characteristic clutch and transmission positions are adaptively repositioned and stored
in the non-volatile memory.
The TRAXON transmission system issues a signal to the vehicle that shows whether an engine start can
occur from the perspective of the transmission.
A stable vehicle system voltage is necessary in order to transfer the required information for the engine
start release and/or the implementation of the starting process.
The supply voltage (terminal 15/terminal 30) for the transmission control unit may not fall below the lower
vehicle system voltage threshold for a "limited functionality" (refer to functional area diagram in Chapter
4.4.3).
To issue the engine start release, the TRAXON is able to evaluate the following information:
▪ The driveline must be open (parameterizable, usually transmission in neutral position)
▪ Range selector or rotary switch in neutral position
▪ Engaged service brake
As soon as the ignition is switched off when the vehicle is stationary or the voltage (terminal 15) drops
below a defined threshold value, the transmission recognizes the requirement to shut off the system. The
shut-off process is only started if the engine shuts down too.
It is checked whether the gear required for parking the vehicle is engaged and whether the clutch is in the
required position. If this is not the case, these positions are forcibly engaged.
If transmission or clutch cannot reach their rest position, the shut-off is implemented after the lapse of a
permissible maximum time.
Special case: No shift is performed if the ignition is switched off during travel. The gear remains engaged;
the clutch remains closed. Only if a defined speed threshold is fallen below are the shut-off positions for
transmission and clutch engaged.
During the "Ignition OFF" phase, errors and driving condition information are migrated to the non-volatile
memory.
For this reason, it is imperative for the permanent positive power supply (terminal 30) not to be switched
off at the same time as the ignition. Instead, it must remain in place for a period of time to be defined.
When shifting from neutral, the clutch is opened simultaneously and the transmission is shifted to the
requested position.
The manual correction of the starting gear during standstill is defined as gear-to-gear shift. In this case, the
clutch is already open and the transmission input and output speed is zero, so the requested new gear can
be shifted immediately.
If the driver requests neutral while the starting gear is engaged, this request, just as with a gear-to-gear
shift, is implemented immediately and the clutch is then closed.
For setting off, various starting gears are available to the driver in both directions of travel, depending on
the application. With the selection of a speed range (D, R) or when stopping, the system independently
engages a suitable starting gear without actuation of the ZF range selector. If required, the driver can cor-
rect this gear within the permitted range by actuating the ZF range selector. The available starting gears
are dependent on the transmission type, vehicle configuration and current conditions.
Accelerator
Engine
Clutch
Vehicle
By pressing the accelerator pedal, it is possible to set off comfortably in different situations (loaded/unloa-
ded, level ground/uphill gradient/downhill gradient). If the vehicle rolls in the direction opposite to the
direction of travel, the engine will not stall during starting. The starting process is interrupted upon load
reduction or actuation of the brake pedal.
In the first phase, the clutch’s idle stroke is surmounted. This is the range in which the clutch does not
transmit torque yet.
In the subsequent second phase, engine speed and clutch control kicks in for adjustment of the engine
speed and buildup of torque on the clutch. The clutch is slip-operated and the desired engine speed is set
dependent on the vehicle loading, road resistance, overall ratio in the current gear and accelerator pedal
position.
When engine and transmission input have the same speed, the system switches to the third phase. The
clutch is then quickly closed and the desired engine torque raised until it meets the driver's request. This
third phase is complete as soon as the load buildup is finished and the clutch is completely closed.
If thermal overload occurs during starting, the driver is informed via the driver-information system (refer to
Chapter 4.8.13, Clutch protection).
Parallel to the notification via the driver-information system, it is optionally possible to modulate engine
speed and clutch torque to alert the driver to change the driving situation (e.g. selection of a lower starting
gear).
As an additional option, the clutch can be automatically closed to avoid continued load. With this procedu-
re, the vehicle speed may increase, the engine speed may be reduced, and possibly, the engine may be
stalled.
A shift during travel can be triggered by the automatic drive program or manually by the driver. The overall
shift sequence for upshifts and downshifts is described in the two following chapters.

3.1.5 Maneuvering
The maneuvering mode can be requested by the driver via a corresponding control element. If the vehicle
speed is below a defined threshold, a permissible maneuvering gear is engaged and thus the driver's
request is implemented. If the driver then activates the accelerator pedal, a corresponding clutch travel is
set. In this process, the transmission control unit (TCU) influences the engine control unit which sets the
engine speed to the level required for maneuvering. The more the accelerator pedal is depressed, the more
the clutch approaches the closed position.
If the clutch is not completely closed, sensitive maneuvering is possible via the accelerator pedal.
Additionally, the entire engine speed range can be used in maneuvering mode when the clutch is closed.
To that end, the corresponding permissible maneuvering gears are available to the driver. No automatic
gear change takes place during maneuvering. The maneuvering mode is quit when the driver takes the
maneuvering request back via the control element.
Accelerator
Engine
Clutch
Vehicle
To protect the engine during overspeed or underspeed operation, automatic shifts can also be performed in
manual operation mode.
To prevent the clutch from being damaged as a result of prolonged friction, current clutch loads are
calculated on the basis of effective torque, speed differential on the clutch and the slip time. Previous
friction processes are considered to determine whether the load limit has been exceeded.
If this is the case, the driver receives a visual and acoustic warning (passive protection measure). The
warning stops when a defined load limit is fallen below.
If the warnings are ignored, the transmission control unit can optionally initiate active protective measures:
▪ Engine speed and clutch torque can be modulated.
▪ To avoid continued load on the clutch, the clutch torque can be gradually increased until the clutch is
completely closed. With this procedure, the vehicle speed may increase, the engine speed may be
reduced, and possibly, the engine may be stalled.
▪ The permissible starting gears are limited depending on the calculated clutch load.
▪ Depending on the applicable boundary conditions, automatic downshifts can take place when starting
and/or maneuvering.
Active protective measures are applicable and must be coordinated between vehicle manufacturer
and ZF.
If the clutch slip is not even completely reduced with the clutch closed, the engine torque is limited via
engine intervention of the transmission control unit. This ends the continuous slip situation and avoids
permanent load on the clutch.

downshift
With the automatic drive program, the TRAXON transmission system shifts fully automatically. The
customer benefit has priority.
A reduction of the fuel consumption alongside optimum gear selection for the respective driving situation
are some of the key features of this function. The automatic drive program can be adapted to different
vehicles, vehicle types and engines.
Subsequent changes of the driveline ratio, which are not approved by ZF, can negatively impact the
automatic drive program and thus the driving behavior.
The existing vehicle CAN signals are used for networking the engine electronics (EDC), electronic brake
(ABS, ASR, EBS), INTARDER and transmission (TCU).

mission
By switching on the electrical system (ignition ON), starting the engine and selecting the forward driving
mode «D», the automatic drive program is activated and a suitable starting gear is engaged. Upon release
of the parking brake and actuation of the accelerator pedal, the vehicle will start moving and the gear
changes will be performed fully automatically.
During travel, the speed range selector can be used to switch between the manual and the automatic drive
program at any time.
With the automatic drive program activated as well as in manual operation, the starting gear is calculated
fully automatically depending on the starting conditions (uphill gradient, load, etc.) and can be corrected
by the driver, if necessary.
If the driver considers the starting gear, as shown in the driver-information system, to be too high, the
starting gear can be corrected downwards via the range selector.
An upshift correction is possible only up to the specified maximum starting gear in order to protect the
clutch (depending upon the application, the starting gear varies for this 12-speed transmission up to gear
5).
The transitions between the various operating modes are regulated by an operating-mode control system.
The conditions traction or coast operation of the driveline are recognized by this control system among the
external (e. g. engine speed, engine torque, accelerator pedal and brake) and internal signals.
The release for the calculation of a new gear preselection is based on two requirements:
▪ No standstill, speed threshold exceeded
▪ Forward gear engaged
If both requirements are fulfilled, the operating mode that is most suitable for the driving situation is
activated.
To optimally adapt the gear to the current driving situation, it is essential to determine the vehicle mass in
case of automatic transmissions. The vehicle mass is required for the gearshift strategy to determine the
starting gear, shift speeds and target speeds.
An automatic gear change is performed depending on the current driving situation (driving resistance,
accelerator pedal, mass calculation, shift speeds, target speeds).
The figure (below) shows a simplified example of a simple traction upshift in an engine-performance
characteristic map. This map defines the target speed range in which the engine speed should be after the
gear change. The target speed is calculated on the basis of the current accelerator pedal position and a
driving resistance-dependent correction, here an increase in speed. The ultimate shifting speed results
from the speed change due to the gear step and an allowance for increased driving resistance.
If this shift speed is outside the upper shift speed range, the gear ratio change or the gear selection will
have to be re-calculated. The end points in the upper speed range are calculated on the basis of the
accelerator pedal position and the acceleration of the transmission input speed.

The driver can use the range selector to end the automatic mode at any time and manually intervene in the
drive program. He has the option of staying in the current gear or shifting up or down manually. If a down-
shift would result in the engine overspeeding, shifting is prevented. However, if the gear is retained
manually and the vehicle accelerates, this may lead to the engine overspeeding. The engine protection
function described in Chapter 3.1.6.1 is deactivated in the manual operating mode.
If an error occurs in the transmission system or in the signal exchange with other systems, the automatic
program is deactivated depending on the identified error. A detailed description can be found in the
incident report.
In the standard application, the driver will be informed about the limited system function by means of a
driver-information system.
∙ Manual operation via the range selector may result in increased fuel consumption depending on
the driver's manual gear selection.
∙ Automatic starting gear selection is retained also in the manual operation mode.
Whilst on moderate terrain, the rolling function serves to open the driveline and, by decoupling the engine-
drag torque, deactivate its braking effect on the input gears and thus use the existing kinetic and potential
energy of the vehicle.
During constant rolling in coast mode, the injected fuel quantity drops due to the reduction of the engine
speed to idle speed (from approx. 8% engine torque at 1,200 rpm to approx. 3% engine torque at
500 rpm) which leads to fuel savings.

Boundary conditions:
▪ The rolling function is especially recommendable in long-distance/interurban traffic.
▪ The rolling function is only active once the transmission oil temperature has exceeded a threshold value.
▪ The rolling function is only active in the higher gears (typically 10 to 12).
▪ To protect the transmission, the engine speed must not fall below 500 rpm in rolling mode (to ensure oil
supply to the transmission) and the transmission output speed must not exceed 2,000 rpm (overspeed
protection).
• The closure of the driveline cannot be guaranteed in the event of an engine fault (engine OFF) whilst the
rolling function is active. Therefore, ZF recommends not to use the rolling function for applications with
increased hazard potential.
The rolling function must be coordinated between ZF and the vehicle manufacturer.
The intelligent networking between the transmission and the GPS system enables a predictive driving
strategy that ideally adapts the shifting point and the gear selection to the terrain and road conditions.
Static route data such as uphill gradient, downhill gradient, curve radius, bridges, localities and the
maximum permissible speed are transmitted via a CAN interface.
On the basis of this anticipatory information, the following added benefits are achieved:
▪ Reduced fuel consumption
▪ Reduced gearshift frequency thanks to knowledge about topography
▪ Improved comfort thanks to less gear changes
▪ Increase in rolling phases
▪ Optimized driving resistance calculation and vehicle mass for improved driving quality.
3.3.1 Basics
The transmission system was developed according to IEC 61508. Accordingly, a complete safety process
was run through and the system analyses specified by the standard were conducted (e. g. risk analysis acc.
to IEC 61508; product FMEA).
Additionally, the product integration must be discussed with the vehicle manufacturer.
Predefined vehicle responses considering various driving conditions were used as a basis for the analysis of
possible malfunctions resulting from failures or errors occurring during proper use of the system. As worst
case for the TRAXON transmission system, the risk analysis acc. to IEC 61508 revealed Safety Integrity
Level SIL 2.
Depending on the driving condition, the following conditions have been defined as safe and desired
conditions for error incidents:
▪ The previous system status
▪ Interruption of the transfer of torque in the driveline
For these desired conditions to be set, the electronic system must be functioning at least partially. If this is
not the case, the system will retain its present operating condition. Safety-relevant malfunctions were
identified in the risk analysis.
Even errors which do not result in safety-relevant malfunctions will affect the proper functioning of the
TRAXON transmission system, and consequently also vehicle reliability and availability.
System responses to single errors are described in an incident report tailored to the corresponding
application. Since the vehicle manufacturer is responsible for the cooperation of all vehicle-integrated
systems (including the error incident), the error responses of the TRAXON transmission system are
discussed and coordinated with the vehicle manufacturer within the framework of a product integration
meeting. This analysis includes errors in the vehicle which may affect the TRAXON transmission system.
Up-to-date and state-of-the-art quality assurance methods and tools were used, and are still being used,
for the development of this system. Function and service life of mechanical, pneumatic and electrical
components are designed accordingly and have been verified by means of tests.
System checks are carried out before and during operations so that redundancies and error protection
systems are available when required. Safety-related malfunctions are prevented reliably for individual
failures. As regards these single failures, the greatest possible degree of vehicle availability is aimed at
when the error responses are defined. Vehicle availability is not usually provided in instances of accidental
multiple failures which cannot be covered systematically by the system. In such instances, the system is
switched into the aforementioned desired state. If for technical reasons it is no longer possible to set the
nominal status, the latest system status will be retained.

The clutch actuation unit's (ConAct) position is permanently recorded by a travel measurement system.
The transmission control system is capable of preventing undesirable clutch actuations in single-fault
cases.
The transmission control unit is designed in such a way that at least two valves (main air supply and shift
valve) must always be actuated to trigger a gear change. The shift cylinders' positions are permanently
measured by a travel measurement system. The transmission control system is capable of preventing
undesired gear shifts in single-fault cases.
The interfaces between TRAXON and vehicle are very important in terms of safety and availability. Error
responses and protective measures of TRAXON after errors/malfunctions result in the desired condition
being retained or set. For this to happen, vehicle-related malfunctions affecting the transmission system
have to be clearly recognizable. To check and assure this principle, a "product integration meeting" is held
with the vehicle manufacturers (refer to Chapter 3.3.2, System analyses conducted) and appropriate
measures are taken if necessary.
When operating the TRAXON transmission systems in vehicles, the design and testing limits of the
mechanics and mechatronics must be observed. These limits are an integral part of the safety
considerations taken into account in the context of development (FMEA, FMEDA, etc.). The TRAXON
transmission system is designed to withstand all loads that usually occur over the service life of the vehicle
under normal vehicle application conditions.
The application limits of the gear set, for instance, are largely determined by the load duty cycles used for
load testing.
For the internal shift system and actuators, the limits that the system has to withstand are e.g. determined
with the help of the underlying actuation cycles, which lead to the following maximum numbers of
actuations:
Shift element Actuations
The testing limits of the TRAXON system are addressed in the product integration meeting.
If the TRAXON transmission system detects system malfunctions or errors, the system responds with
backup functions. They are described in a so-called incident report. The errors are shown in the display as
agreed with the vehicle manufacturer. The errors are entered in the error memory of the TRAXON
transmission system after the ignition is switched off.
Resetting of recently entered errors and cancelation of resulting error responses will usually take place
when the error is no longer present. Error numbers can e.g. be requested via the range selector (refer to
Chapter 3.5, Diagnosis).
In simplified terms, the errors themselves can be divided into three error categories; further details on
limitations and responses of the system can be found in the incident report:
Error class 1
Unrestricted driving operation possible
▪ No error display
▪ Entry in error memory
▪ Possibly reduced driving comfort
▪ Error can be rectified during next workshop visit
Error class 2
Restricted driving operation possible
▪ Error display (e.g. yellow lamp or wrench icon)
▪ Entry in error memory
▪ Reduced driving comfort
▪ Possibly reduced maneuvering and starting quality
▪ Possibly increased shift times
▪ Visit specialist workshop
▪ Possible limitation in available gears
Error class 3
No further driving operation possible
▪ Error display (e.g. red lamp or stop icon)
▪ Entry in error memory
▪ Transmission response depends on the error. Very limited or no response to gear request. A condition
may be reached in which shifting is no longer possible and the gear selected before is retained. The
transmission control system will attempt to enable selection of the starting gear and neutral so that the
hazard area can be evacuated.
▪ Contact nearest specialist workshop
3.5 Diagnosis
Whenever the TRAXON transmission system detects an error, an error response or substitute function is
enabled and the error is stored in the error memory. While the TCU continues to operate (after "ignition
OFF"), the contents of the error memory are copied to the non-volatile memory.
With the occurrence and disappearance of an error, the error number can be saved together with various
ambient conditions, such as speeds, functional status, gear, operating hours, etc. Additionally, the
frequency of occurrence of the error is counted.
Up to 20 different errors can be saved in the error memory. If the error memory is full, non-active errors are
overwritten. If an error no longer occurs after a defined number of ignition OFF/ON operations, the error
can be erased by the control unit.
For troubleshooting on the TRAXON, ZF can provide the vehicle manufacturer with the following diagnostic
tool for the workshop:
For quick and reliable off-board diagnostics, it is required to provide an access to the ZF-CAN within the
driver's cab.

4.1.5 Clutch
As a link between the engine and the TRAXON transmission system, the clutch has to fulfill the following
functions:
▪ To ensure gear changes as well as maneuvering, setting off and stopping processes in all driving
situations in conjunction with the TRAXON transmission control unit.
▪ Reducing vibrations in the driveline.
Only use torsion-damped, push-type clutches, Ø 430 mm, which are suitable for the present engine-
transmission combination.
Special demands are placed on the clutch regarding the clutch torque transfer characteristics and
detection of release force to ensure that the interaction with the TRAXON transmission control unit works
correctly.
The clutch used by the vehicle manufacturer must be agreed with ZF.
As the clutch is actuated via the TRAXON transmission control unit, the linings have a longer expected
service life than those in average applications with manual transmissions.

TRAXON is supplied with the ConAct clutch actuation unit (3). Therefore, assembly of the clutch actuator
can be omitted at the vehicle manufacturer's line. The ConAct is the transmission's interface with the
clutch.
If the ConAct is extended, it can be pushed back into its assembly position (retracted) by loosening the
vent screw (2). The vent screw (2) can only be accessed via the screw plug (1).
▪ The ConAct is designed for push-type diaphragm-spring clutches. Over the entire clutch service life,
the release force must not exceed 12 kN.
▪ With a minimum pressure (safety pressure) of 4.5 bar (overpressure), the ConAct has a release force of
at least 10 kN.
▪ With a minimum pressure (safety pressure) of 5.5 bar (overpressure), the ConAct has a release force of
at least 12 kN.

The transmission may only be suspended from the screw-on surfaces provided for this purpose on the
transmission housing and/or auxiliary (refer to Chapter 4.1.4, Bell housing). Housing material GD-AlSi9Cu3
is defined as the strength parameters for the screw design, material class ZFN 410-F270 and surface
treatment Fe/Zn6B similar to DIN 50961 have been defined for the design with threaded bushes.
Transmission mountings on the vehicle frame must be designed as agreed with ZF in such a way that no
additional forces are transferred to the transmission housing by vehicle frame distortions.
Connecting dimensions of the transmission suspension and position of the center of gravity are provided
in the respective installation drawing.
The screws used for the transmission suspension must correspond to at least strength class 8.8.
In accordance with VDI 2230, the specified tightening torque (strength class 8.8) must be calculated on
all suspension points.
The additional use of threadlockers, like e.g. corrugated-head screws or washers are not permissible.
▪ Other tapped holes on the TRAXON may not be used as suspension points.
▪ Minimum screw-in depth 24 mm for screw connection in threaded bush.

If no rear engine mounting is in place, suspension C can optionally be used in consultation with ZF. This
suspension was developed for truck applications as well as bus applications. The optional suspension C
can be used to extend the engine mount base.
The design and configuration as well as the design of the supporting struts' screw connection must be
coordinated with and released by ZF. Please make sure that the force application point is positioned
centrally in the flange pattern. In the case of installation by the customer, this calculation must be
repeated with the applied connection geometry and a corresponding test program must be carried out.
Transmission mountings on the vehicle frame must be designed as agreed with ZF in such a way that no

In neutral position, however, it should be noted that no forces are transmitted from the rubber bearing of
support E and that the stiffness of E is lower than that of bearings A + C or A + B.
If support in point E is required, all threads must be used (for threads and screw-in depth, refer to
installation drawing).
Special attention should be paid to the following points when designing the carrier:
▪ Maximum permissible vertical load ± 3 g on supporting point E. For higher loads, support at point E is
required.
▪ When using supporting point E, a maximum vertical load of the housing thread of 25 kN is permissible.
A bending torque is not permitted.
TRAXON can cope with a total inclination (vehicle inclination including transmission inclination) of 17°
without suffering damage. This corresponds to a grade of track of:
▪ 21% at a 5° transmission inclination
▪ 30% at a 0° transmission inclination
The transmission's transverse inclination may be up to 3°. Beyond that, written approval by ZF is
required.
A propshaft may be the cause of torsional and bending vibrations in the driveline. The vehicle
manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that the overall system works without additional loads on the
individual units.
The permissible loads/stresses for ZF components are described in Chapters 4.1.11 and 4.1.12. The
reference values stated there do not only apply to the excitation caused by combustion engines but also to
the excitation caused by propshafts. It must be noted in particular that propshafts and combustion
engines that lie in the same frequency range excite vibrations.
Since a vibration analysis cannot be performed for every application, boundary conditions based on ZF's
long-standing experience are stated below. These boundary conditions describe the operating ranges
of a driveline in which no noteworthy additional loads due to vibrations have to be expected. If these
values cannot be met, a closer investigation by the vehicle manufacturer is required. Release may then
only be granted following consultation with ZF.

No torsional vibration problems are expected for deflection angles which, depending on the speed, are
below the values stated in Fig. 4.13. Additional measures are not required.
All joints of a propshaft can excite torsional vibrations with the 2nd order of the rotary frequency. This can
lead to overlaps of the different exciters (joints) in the driveline. Since all frequencies are the same, the
vibration amplitudes are reduced or increased depending on the phasing of the excitation. The actual
overlap depends on the mass moment of inertia, especially that of the middle part of the propshaft.
However, contrary to what is usually assumed, a complete cancelation of the vibrations under optimal
boundary conditions is not possible. Incorrect phase displacement, on the other hand, may lead to
considerable increases in vibration, which results in impermissible loads on adjacent components.
Both joints must be turned by 90° against each other (refer to Fig. 4.14).

Output fork of joint 1 and input fork of joint 2 are parallel to each other.
Usually, shafts with length compensation are marked by the manufacturer so that an incorrect connection
of the two parts in the sliding piece is avoided.
ZF recommendation:
The spatial deflection angles of joint 1 and joint 2 should be the same: bR1 = bR2
Every deviation from this recommendation means more vibration excitation by the propshaft. Particularly
in case of acoustically sensitive vehicles, this will result in a loss of comfort.
In the event of more than two joints, the two joints with the largest deflection angles respectively must be
turned by 90° against each other.

To avoid bending vibrations, the propshaft must not be operated with more than 80% of the speed critical
for bending. Fig. 4.18 shows the limit speeds depending on the propshaft length as well as the tube
diameter (middle part). To a great extent, both of these parameters are decisive for the first natural

Installation
The propshafts must be arranged in such a way that the spline profile is protected from dirt or moisture as
much as possible. This generally means installation as shown in the sketch (refer to Fig. 4.20) where the
profile seal faces downwards so that any splash water runs off from the spline profile.

Fig. 4.20 Arrangement of the propshafts
The driveline layout and setup must be designed in such a way that no resonance points occur in the
normal speed range. If major vibration amplitudes cannot be avoided in individual cases, check for
possibly restricted service life together with ZF.
The following amplitudes for torques and torsional acceleration are usually noncritical and require no
further measures:

In the frequency range of f < 250 Hz, the torsional acceleration amplitudes on the transmission input and
output shafts which are smaller than

s2 are noncritical.
The means of support recommended by ZF live up to the following vibration resistance requirements:
▪ Continuous load: ±3 g (< 30 Hz)
▪ Support E is required for loads greater than 3 g (refer to Chapter 4.1.8.3).
Appropriate cover plates are to be fitted for applications, in which there is a risk of transmission damage
caused by e.g. increased soiling due to snow, salt water, dust and water.
The vehicle and vehicle body manufacturers must also ensure that all upper plug connections are
protected from damage (e.g. by a step protection plate).
The transmission features mounting points for attaching cables and the INTARDER tubing.
If other components are attached to the mounting points without prior release, ZF accepts no liability for
any potential housing damage and/or functional impairments (e.g. EMC).
4.1.15 Fordability
4.1.16 Accessibility
The following TRAXON parts must be accessible for identification, test, maintenance and repair purposes;
the specifications in the installation drawing are binding.
The vehicle manufacturer / body builder must ensure that specifications and guidelines (Machinery
Directive, turntable ladder standards, etc.) are considered and complied with.
The alternating dependencies of the vehicle electronics must not be disturbed through modified cable
routing (refer to system design).
If fundamental changes are carried out on the installation that have an influence on the TRAXON, the ZF
Installation Release ceases to apply.
No further consumers may be connected to the TRAXON's pneumatic supply line in addition to the priority
circuit and the non-return valve.
▪ The wiring from the transmission control unit to the vehicle must be secured to the mounting brackets
(1) on the transmission. If the mounting
brackets cannot be used, the wiring must be
secured to the transmission 200 mm after the
plug connection at the latest.

After performing work in the area of the lines, it is essential that they are checked for damage and that the
plugs are checked for correct assembly. This also applies to pneumatic, oil and water lines.
4.2 Temperatures
The following issues may lead to the permissible temperatures being exceeded:
▪ Encapsulated and noise-insulated transmission installation
▪ Insufficient distance between exhaust system / turbocharger and transmission
▪ No air exchange with transmission environment possible (measures on the vehicle)
▪ Very high or very low driving speed
▪ Oil level too high

Although the oil fill quantities are stated here and in the different documentation referenced, you must
verify correct oil fill levels directly on the transmission. To do so, fill oil through the oil filling point with the
vehicle on level ground until the oil level has reached the lower edge of the oil filling point or oil escapes
at the oil filling point.
The correct filling quantity is only achieved once the vehicle has been moved and a second filling process
has been carried out.
▪ The TRAXON transmission is supplied with "ZF-Ecofluid M" oil fill as standard.
▪ The oil change intervals are documented in the ZF List of Lubricants TE-ML 02.
▪ We recommend to also use "ZF-Ecofluid M" as service oil.
▪ Approved oils for initial and service fills and the attainable oil change intervals can be found in the
latest version of the ZF List of Lubricants TE-ML 02. The ZF List of Lubricants is available at all
ZF Service Centers or can be obtained from the Internet: www.zf.com

4.4 Electrics
The system layout schematically illustrates the arrangement and network of all electronic components
required for the functioning of the TRAXON transmission system.
In the standard system, this not only includes TRAXON electronics, but also the electronics of the engine
(or vehicle), ABS, INTARDER, driver-information system as well as possible additional components such as
the ZF range selector.
Communication between the electronic systems of engine and vehicle and/or with the TRAXON takes
place via the CAN1 (vehicle CAN), defined by SAEJ1939 (other transfer protocols upon request).
The TRAXON transmission system has a total of three CAN interfaces. The standard configuration is as
follows:
▪ CAN 1: vehicle CAN (250/500 kBd)
▪ CAN 2: application CAN (250/500 kBd)
▪ CAN 3: ZF CAN, connection of ZF peripheral components (250 kBd)
Deviating configurations must be agreed with ZF.

In terms of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), the linear connection is more insensitive to interferences
in particular with high transfer rates (500 kBd).
The TRAXON supports this type of CAN connection. The CAN lines are piped within the TCU (two
connections each for CAN_H and CAN_L).
CAN_H
CAN_L
This stub cable must not exceed the maximum length defined in the standards (e. g. SAE J1939, ISO/DIS
11898).

The transmission control unit (TCU) has an integrated CAN bus terminating resistor which can be
activated by the wiring on the electronics connector.
The electronics can therefore be used as CAN bus end consumer or central consumer.
If the transmission electronics are designed as CAN bus end consumer, then the line bridge in the
electronics connector (power supply connector) must be used in accordance with Fig. 4.30 (bridge from
PIN 27 to PIN 28).

4.4.5 Wiring
▪ All wiring components such as contacts and connectors must be produced and tested according to
the manufacturers' applicable production and testing specifications (e. g. vehicle-end transmission
connector, TYCO company).
▪ The E1 certification is applicable to the ZF scope of supply (except vehicle wiring harness). For the
vehicle-end wiring, responsibility for the certification rests with the vehicle manufacturer.
▪ The TRAXON design (except vehicle wiring harness) meets the basic ADR requirements.
▪ An ADR certification of the transmission system is not intended as standard.

The standard scope of supply does not include an impulse sensor, but only a screw plug (refer to
installation drawing).
Optionally, the KITAS 2+ impulse sensor is available, which is needed for all digital tachographs.
For simple off-board diagnostics, it is required to provide an access to the ZF-CAN within the driver's cab
(also refer to Chapter 3.5.2, Off-board diagnostics).
The signal exchange between the TRAXON transmission system and the other control units in the vehicle
is implemented via CAN.
Mainly, the exchanged signals comply with the requirements of SAE J1939.
The detailed agreements for each signal with respect to quality, accuracy and required repetition
rate must be defined in common signal specifications.
The characteristic curves of these signals must be coordinated between vehicle manufacturer and
ZF.
4.4.9 EMC
The system is subject to the E1 type approval of the Federal Motor Transport Authority.
An excerpt from the E1 type approval can be requested from ZF.
4.5 Pneumatics
The quality of the air supply system for the TRAXON transmission system is particularly important for the
availability of the vehicle. Therefore, the same requirements apply to air quality and the design of the air
lines as for the braking system.
The air supply for the TRAXON is to be connected to the vehicle's air supply system, after the four-circuit
protection valve at the ancillary circuit (refer to Fig. 4.32).
Note here that the TRAXON air supply takes priority over the other auxiliaries. This is ensured by installing
an overflow valve upstream of the other auxiliaries.

10_003681_01_en
ZF recommends to use an external air connection in case the vehicle breaks down with a gear engaged
and without air supply.
A separate air reservoir must be fitted for TRAXON which is protected by a non-return valve. Do not
connect any other air consumers to this compressed-air circuit.
The non-return valve prevents the pressure in the air reservoir from falling when there is a leak or
insufficient air in the rest of the air system.
ZF recommends a minimum volume of the air reservoir of 10 liters.
Permissible supply pressure 8 bar to 12.5 bar after the air conditioning system.
A supply pressure of at least 8 bar must be ensured and must not be fallen below during operation.
The TRAXON uses an integrated pressure regulator to reduce the air pressure to a constant shifting
pressure to preserve the shift elements and to achieve constant shift characteristics.
Required air supply rate: at least 8 l/min at 8 bar at the compressor's pressure outlet.
This assumed requirement is based on the consumption of nine gear changes and one starting process
("Ignition ON" with clutch actuation unit calibration) per minute.
The vehicle air system should be designed so that at least the aforementioned air supply rate is
made available for the TRAXON's air circuit alone.
Refer to the installation drawing for the geometric design of the air connection.
The air lines from the air reservoir to the TRAXON must feature a nominal width (inside diameter) of at
least 10 mm. The maximum length of 4 m must not be exceeded. The values stated are reference values
for a supply pressure of 10 bar.
In case of deviating values, e. g. nominal width of 9 mm (air line 12x1.5), impairments might occur.
The compressed air supplied by the vehicle must be cleaned, dried and free of condensation.
Particle filter: mesh size of 40 μm.
Air conditioning systems which emit alcohol or other substances into the air system that may have a
negative impact on seal materials, are not permitted.
For faultless transmission operation, the compressed air must at least comply with the following
conditions:
Example: At an ambient temperature of 20°C, the relative humidity (after air conditioning system) shall
be max. 25% so that with a lowering of the temperature by 20 K (Kelvin) there is no water
condensation.
It is recommended to use an air filter cartridge with coalescence filter and oil separation which leads to
compressed-air quality of the following values:
▪ Solid contaminants: ≤ 1 µm
▪ Total oil content: ≤ 0.1 mg/m³
The TRAXON has an integrated pressure sensor. If the system pressure is too low, the driver can be
warned in several stages so that he can respond in time.
1st stage The air pressure is too low: The driver receives a warning.
2nd stage Only insufficient air pressure available: Transmission functions are limited (e.g. no
automatic mode, no clutch teach-in).
3rd stage The air pressure is too low: Gearshift lock (no shifting is performed).
The responsibility for the driver warnings lies with the vehicle manufacturer.

To reduce the number of TRAXON supply and/or service variants, the software of the TRAXON can be
programmed/installed by the vehicle manufacturer.
For the EOL (End Of Line) programming of the TRAXON-specific vehicle variants outside of the ZF
organization, the necessary program versions and documentation, production and service process
requirements must be agreed between the vehicle manufacturer and ZF.
ZF documents the TRAXON's delivery status via the order number of the vehicle manufacturer.
All EOL programming/parameterization actions and modifications taking place outside the ZF organization
and during the service life of the transmission control unit (TCU) must be understandable for ZF.
TRAXON-specific data required for the documentation at ZF is coordinated with the vehicle manufacturer.
TRAXON-specific data which is available at the moment of end-of-line programming must be forwarded to
ZF. To that end, a standardized procedure must be defined.
∙ Depending on the manufacturer and vehicle type, the control elements and operating processes may
deviate from those in this manual.
∙ The vehicle manufacturer's operating instructions are decisive.

Hill start
The driver can correct the starting gear that is suggested by the system.
4.8.3 Maneuvering
▪ Do not allow vehicle to roll in the opposite direction to the gear selected.
▪ When the vehicle moves off without a gear selected – range selector is in « N » – no engine brake
effect is available.
If the parking brake is released while a gear is engaged and the vehicle starts moving off, the clutch
closes automatically, without the driver having to press the accelerator pedal, provided that the engaged
gear corresponds to the vehicle's running direction.
If the engaged gear does not correspond to the vehicle's running direction, the clutch is optionally opened
or cyclically slightly closed and opened. The driver is warned via the driver-information system (refer to
Chapter 2.4.2, Driver information interface).
If the vehicle rolls forwards – transmission in neutral – once the brake has been released and the driver
changes from «N» to «D», the system selects a gear appropriate for the driving speed. The driveline is thus
closed.
Shifts to “neutral” can also be made during travel. With the range selector, you can shift from every gear
into neutral at any time. This shift request takes priority over other requests. The accelerator pedal position
does not need to be changed during the shift process because the engine is controlled electronically.
If a shift is made to “neutral”, the driveline is interrupted. The engine braking effect is no longer present.
Engage a gear as soon as possible (select «
D ») to close the driveline again and re-establish the engine braking effect.
A shift command is not undertaken if the shift would result in the max. permissible engine speed being
exceeded. In this case, a (different) suitable gear is engaged.
4.8.7 Reversing
Changing direction of travel by moving the range selector position from « R » to « D » and vice versa may
only be undertaken when the vehicle is stationary, otherwise the transmission shifts to neutral, depending
on the vehicle speed.
The driver-information system is definitive for the direction of travel selected in the transmission.
The engine braking effect is interrupted during the gear shift process. The vehicle may accelerate when
traveling downhill.
Manual mode
The system deactivates the engine brake during gear changes. Once the gear change is complete, the en-
gine brake is automatically reactivated.
Automatic mode
By activating the engine brake, the system shifts into lower gear until maximum braking torque is reached.
4.8.9 Stopping
▪ With the accelerator pedal untouched, slow down the vehicle using the service brake until it reaches a
standstill.
– The clutch opens automatically before the vehicle reaches a standstill so that "stalling" the engine is
avoided.
▪ For extended stops, we recommend selecting the transmission's neutral position (automatic shift to
neutral) (refer to Chapter Clutch protection).
The engine cannot be switched off if a gear is selected. The vehicle may roll away in «neutral position» if
no brakes are engaged.
• If neutral is not selected before the engine is switched off, this is done automatically when the
ignition is moved to "OFF".
• A new engine start is dependent on the engine start release (engine start release signal via
CAN).
4.8.11 Towing
The vehicle may be towed with flange-mounted propshafts or floating axles. The following conditions
must be met for this:
▪ It must be ensured that the high range change group is engaged. The following boundary conditions
must be met for this:
1. Ensure power and air supply
2. Switch ignition on (wait for check phase)
3. No error message is issued. This ensures that the high range change group is engaged.
▪ No gear is engaged in the main transmission.
▪ Max. towing distance 100 km
▪ The maximum permissible towing speed, which depends on the rear-axle ratio and the tire size, can be
read off the diagram in Fig. 4.46. In addition, the maximum permissible towing speeds determined by
local legislation must also be observed.

Restriction
Towing with flange-mounted propshaft and/or installed floating axles is prohibited in any case if the
following conditions are present:
1. Only one of the previously listed conditions is not fulfilled.
2. There is an error message (250) or it cannot be ensured that the high range change group (high R/C)
and the main transmission are set to NEUTRAL (e.g. undefined breakdown, failure of power and/or air
supply).
3. Suspicion of transmission damage.
Towing while the low range change group is engaged or with an engaged gear in the main transmission
leads to significant transmission or engine damage within a very short period of time.
The operator is responsible for ensuring that the required boundary conditions are met for towing with
flange-mounted propshafts or floating axles.
If the vehicle is towed with disconnected floating axles, environmental damage due to possible oil loss
must be avoided.
If there is a risk of the clutch being overloaded by several starting procedures in short succession or by
extended maneuvering in too high a gear, a warning message «Clutch overload» appears in the driver-
information system (also refer to Chapter Driver information interface).
If the driver ignores the warning message, engine and clutch are controlled as described in Chapter
"Setting off". This may lead to stalling of the engine, and it cannot be excluded that the vehicle rolls
backwards downhill.
Select an operating mode in which there is no risk of clutch overload, for example:
▪ Accelerate vehicle (to close the clutch).
▪ Stop.
▪ Set off or maneuver in a lower gear.
• To preserve the mechanical parts of the clutch release mechanism, you should shift the transmission to
neutral when stopping for long periods (more than approx. 1 to 2 min., for example in traffic jams, at
traffic lights, etc.). This closes the clutch and takes the strain off the clutch release mechanism.
Despite the clutch being automated, the driver still has considerable influence on the clutch's service life.
To keep the clutch wear as low as possible, we recommend always selecting the lowest gear possible
when stetting off.
To protect the entire driveline from excessive speeds, the transmission system only allows gear changes
which are within the speed range defined by the vehicle manufacturer.
▪ Once driven onto a roller test bench (brake test bench), shift transmission into neutral.
▪ Only manual mode is possible on roller test benches that only drive the rear axle.
• When the rollers are running, the system recognizes the "driving vehicle" function. If you select a gear,
the clutch closes.
▪ When the rollers are running, reverse gear cannot be selected.
▪ Automatic mode: The transmission needs driving speed information from the front wheels in order to
change gears in automatic mode. Without this information, the transmission retains the selected gear
until a shift into manual mode is performed. Therefore, all automatic mode tests must take place on a
test course, for example.
It cannot be excluded that the vehicle might leave the rollers even if the accelerator is not depressed.
Observe the following: Error numbers can only be retrieved from the error memory when the engine is
switched off. The errors saved are displayed one after another on the display.
• Switch on ignition
• Range selector must be in « N »position
• Set range selector to « D » and apply foot brake at the same time
• Keep range selector in « + » position
4.9 Maintenance
The vehicle manufacturer’s maintenance instructions and service intervals must be observed.
When draining the compressed-air reservoir, the air conditioning system with water separator
should also be drained if this is not done automatically. Always comply with the service interval for
replacing the air filter cartridge to ensure the same good compressed air quality at all times.

The oil which is accelerated by the rotor blades is
slowed down by the blades of the stationary stator
(22). The braking energy is thereby converted into
thermal energy.

6 Cooling
The dimensioning of the vehicle cooling system for Intarder operation depends on the following
components:
▪ Pressures in the cooling system
▪ Coolant tubes
▪ Coolant flow (flow direction and distribution)
▪ Coolant thermostat
▪ Vehicle fan
▪ Installed or disconnected heat exchanger
▪ Area of application (vehicle cooling system size / additional cooling system)
Dependency
The more effective the vehicle's cooling system, the better the continuous braking properties of the
INTARDER because the reregulation is done later.
(The automatic INTARDER reregulation prevents the vehicle cooling system from overheating.)

Overpressures in the coolant system are made up of the pressure increase due to the engine's cooling
pump and the charging pressure in the compensating reservoir.
The following limit values for the oil/coolant heat exchanger at operating temperature and specified
coolant composition must not be exceeded or fallen below:
▪ Maximum permissible coolant overpressure 3.5 bar
▪ Minimum required coolant overpressure 0.6 bar at engine idle speed
Possible measuring point in the connection point of the temperature sensor of the ZF oil/coolant heat

In order to keep the penetration resistance in the additional water tubes low, we recommend installing
tubes with a tube inside diameter of at least 47 mm.

and corrosion, certain requirements are placed
upon the coolant quality.
6.1.8 Vehicle radiator
A coolant used in the oil/coolant heat exchanger must comply with the relevant specification of the engine
and vehicle manufacturer and must have the official release from the engine manufacturer.
The following requirements apply to coolant additives containing silicate and relate to the silicate content
of products when new: 200 - 300 ppm Si.
Since the coolant is subject to an aging process, the complete coolant quantities must be exchanged in
line with the vehicle manufacturer's specification.
7.1 Application
In an application project, the system components and their interfaces with the TRAXON transmission
system are defined, coordinated and correspondingly documented in collaboration with the vehicle
manufacturer.
The application contents are approved by the customer and are the basis for the release of the application
by ZF.
In order to prevent the application release being revoked as a result of system-related modifications, the
vehicle manufacturer must clarify modifications that affect the transmission system early on with ZF.
7.2 ZF documentation
The scope of supply is defined with the customer by the customer specification and documented in the
ZF parts list [BoM]. If you have questions, always specify the parts list [BoM] number and, if required, the
serial number (see type plate) of the affected TRAXON transmission.
The ZF scope of supply is determined during the application process and the TRAXON transmission system
is adjusted to the respective vehicle. The application process involves several steps in the course of which
the following documents are created.
