Safety instructions

– Before using the manoeuvring assistant outdoors for the first
time, practice with it to familiarise yourself with the functions
of the remote control and the manoeuvring assistant.
– Before each use of the manoeuvring assistant, check tyres
and drive rollers, removing any sharp stones and similar
objects.
– The side slide switch on the remote control (ON / OFF) also
serves as an "Emergency Stop switch". Switch the side slide
switch to "OFF" immediately in the event of any abnormali-
ties, e. g. uncontrolled behaviour of the manoeuvring system.
– No person must be present in the caravan during operation.
– There must be no persons (particularly children) inside the
turning and movement range (manoeuvring range) of the
mobile home.
– When engaging and disengaging and while operating the
manoeuvring system, care must be taken to ensure that no
hair, parts of the body, clothing or other parts on the body
can become caught in moving and / or rotating parts (such
as drive rollers).
– During manoeuvring, the distance between the radio remote
control and the middle of the caravan must not exceed 10 m!
– In the event of a malfunction, apply the parking brake.
– In order to avoid tilting the caravan, when manoeuvring on
slopes the drawbar should be pointed downwards (downhill).
– After manoeuvring, always apply the parking brake first, dis-
engage the drive rollers from the tyre and block the wheels
(especially on sloping surfaces!) . The manoeuvring assist-
ant is not suitable for use as a parking brake for a parked
caravan.
– Always protect the radio remote control from unauthorised
access (paying particular attention to children).
– Never tow the caravan with the drive rollers engaged, as this
may cause damage to the tyres, the towing vehicle and the
drive assemblies.
– All wheels and tyres on the caravan must be of the same
size and type.
– In order to ensure that the manoeuvring assistant operates
correctly, the gap between the tyres and the disengaged
drive rollers must be 20 mm. All tyres must be inflated to the
same pressure in accordance with manufacturer's instruc-
tions and checked regularly. Tyre wear or the fitting of new
tyres may make it necessary to readjust the gap between the
drive rollers and the tyres (see "Fitting the drive elements").
– When using a jack, the manoeuvring assistant must not
be used as a jacking point, as this may damage the drive
assembly.
– Sensitive objects such as cameras, DVD players etc. must
not be kept in the stowage box near the control unit or the
motor cables, as the powerful electromagnetic fields may
damage them.
– The empty weight of the vehicle is increased by the weight of
the manoeuvring assistant, thus reducing the payload of the
vehicle.
RH 1 Manoeuvring Assistant

General instructions

Please note that the manoeuvring assistant is only suit-
able for single-axle trailers.
The RH1 manoeuvring assistant has been designed to cope
with inclines of up to approx. 25 % at a gross weight of 1200 kg
or 15 % at a gross weight of 1800 kg on a suitable surface.
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the manoeuvring
assistant may not be able to overcome obstacles more than
about 2 cm in height without auxiliary equipment (please use
ascent chocks).
As a result of the characteristics of a radio signal, it may be in-
terrupted by terrain / objects. This reduces reception quality in
small areas around the caravan, as a result of which the oper-
ation of the manoeuvring assistant may be briefly interrupted.
When the manoeuvring assistant is switched off using the
remote control, the control unit remains in standby. In or-
der to switch off completely the battery must be disconnected
or an isolating switch installed.
Batteries
For optimum operation we recommend batteries with button
cells and an appropriate charger.
So-called drive, lighting and gel batteries with sufficient capacity
are also suitable.
Recommended battery capacities
Button cell technology
Gel / AGM
Lead-acid battery (liquid electrolyte)
Starter batteries are not suitable
Batteries with greater capacity allow the equipment to be
used for longer.
Battery care (including maintenance-free batteries)
In order to achieve a long battery service life, attention must be
paid to the following points:
Batteries should be fully charged before and after removing
power,
for stationary periods of longer than 24 hours, interrupt power
circuit (e.g. using circuit breaker or by disconnecting the battery
poles),
for longer stop periods the battery must be disconnected and
charged for 24 hours at least every 12 weeks.
In winter, store fully charged battery in a cool and frost-free
place and recharge at regular intervals (every 12 weeks).

Function description

Always observe the operating instructions and the "Safety
instructions" prior to starting! The vehicle owner is respon-
sible for correct operation of the device.
The manoeuvring assistant is a system that allows a caravan
to be manoeuvred without the aid of the towing vehicle.
The manoeuvring assistant consists of two separate drive as-
semblies, each with its own 12 V DC motor.
