Installation - Mechanical Components
Once satisfied with mover spacing, fully tighten the four nyloc nuts (17) on both clamping assemblies
(Fig.9) to a torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm, then the bolts (Fig.1A) on each motor side framework to a
torque setting of 9ft lbs/12Nm. Re-check the distance of 20mm from the rollers to the tyres and if
necessary, loosen the bolts and re-adjust the position of the assembly. Once satisfied with the position
of the assembly, fit and tighten the Chassis Stop Nuts & Bolts (7) in each of the Classic Clamp Upper
Plates (8) (see Fig.9). Tighten to a torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm. The Stop Bolts grip the lip of the
chassis and help prevent the mover from sliding along the chassis.
The main mechanical components have now been installed.

Installation - Mechanical Components (AWD Configuration)

To install an All Wheel Drive configuration on your caravan, follow the same instructions outlined in the
previous section: 'Installation - Mechanical Components'. AWD set up follows the exact same process,
with the only difference being the orientation of the movers. In an AWD configuration, the movers
powering the rear axle of the vehicle must be orientated facing the front of the trailer (see Fig.8).
Ensure to follow the Electrical/Electronic AWD configuration section closely to ensure that these motor
assemblies work as intended and not against one another.

Installation - Electrical/Electronic Components

Before attempting any electrical work, be sure to isolate the 12V supply from the battery and
ensure any 230V electricity supply is disconnected.
Find a suitable place to mount the Electronic Control Unit (4), such as a storage area, under a seat or
a bed. Make sure this place is dry and close to the battery (30 cm to 60 cm). Affix the supplied
antenna (35) to the rear screw thread at the rear of the electronic control box prior to mounting. The
unit can then be mounted on a flat base (horizontal) or on a wall (vertical). When choosing location,
ensure that the unit cannot easily be damaged. Fix the Electronic Control Unit (4) into position with
four of the screws provided (19). If the length of these screws is not suitable for the desired location/
material, please substitute as appropriate.
Drill a a 25mm hole through the floor of the caravan approximately 150mm centrally in front of the
control unit (4) terminals.
Take care to avoid any chassis members, gas pipes and electrical wires when drilling the
required holes and fixing components to your vehicle.
Study Fig.13. The wiring diagram (Fig.13) depicts the wiring route when installing the motor units in
FRONT of the wheels/axle, facing the rear of the trailer. Fig.14 displays the polarity of the terminals on
the movers. Note that these locations remain the same regardless of whether the motor is the left or
right side mover.
