6.2.6. Tractors for semi-trailers with a low chassis, namely those which may have a height of coupling face (defined in point 6.20 of standard ISO 612 of 1978) equal to or less than 1 100 mm, may be designed in such a way as to be exempted from the requirements of points 6.1.1(a), 6.1.3 and 6.2.4. In this regard, mudguards and valances may not cover the area immediately above the tyres of the rear axles, when these tractors are coupled to a semi-trailer, in order to avoid the spray-suppression system being destroyed. However, the mudguards and valances of these vehicles must conform to the requirements of the above points, in sectors more than 60° from the vertical line passing through the centre of the wheel, in front and behind these tyres.
