Operation - Mover Engagement/Disengagement

Always ensure your caravan handbrake is on before engaging or disengaging the mover
system to prevent unwanted movement of the caravan. Only release the handbrake when the
mover is securely engaged to the tyre and you are ready to move the caravan.
Automatic Engagement - During transit/installation the engagement motor end block may
rotate causing it to tighten. Before first use, place the manual engagement tool in the rear of
the engagement end block (removing rubber cap) and turn the tool clockwise to ensure it is
moving freely, there should be little resistance required to turn the tool.
Turn on the handset and then from the home screen hold the multifunctional button (Fig.1C) for 3
seconds to engage or disengage the mover. When engaging/disengaging the following information will
be shown on the display (image varies based on mode):
Once engagement is completed (see Fig.5) the handset will return to the home screen and thumbstick
controls will be activated allowing the caravan to be moved. In the event of an issue, an engagement
tool (6) is supplied that can be used to engage/disengage the mover. To use this remove the small
rubber plug on the rear of the engagement motor and turn the engagement worm manually using the
tool.
Warning! When engaging/disengaging, ensure there is nothing obstructing or preventing the
movement of the motors. Should the motors stop unexpectedly, check the immediate area for
any potential obstructions.

Operation - Manoeuvring

Caution! Please read the operation safety guidelines closely BEFORE to attempting to operate
your caravan mover system.
The smart electronics utilise a Directional Thumb Stick (Fig.10.B) for precise control of speed and
direction. The speed of operation is dictated by how far the stick moves from its centre point, to the
outer perimeter. Direction is dictated by the radial position of the thumb stick (moving the stick from left
to right). See Fig.19 for reference.
Refer to your handset screen to ensure the caravan is orientated in the desired way (Fig.17.E). For
example if the hitch is at the top of the display, when the thumb control is moved upwards the hitch
side of the caravan will move forward. If the rear of the caravan is at the top of the display, the rear of
the caravan will move forward when the thumb control is moved upwards.
For smooth operation always begin by moving the Directional Thumb Stick in the general direction you
would like to head (forwards or reverse), the further the thumb control moves away from the centre,
the faster the mover will operate. From this point progressively move the control radially (sidewards) to
achieve a fluid change in direction. The more the control is moved sidewards the tighter the turning
radius that will be achieved. Note: moving the thumb control to the hard right or left position will
engage the spin on the spot function on single axle caravans. Due to the nature of twin axle vehicles,
this function is not available in Twin axle or AWD modes.
