towing bracket
EC Approval No. as per Directive 94/20/EC:
Application:
Order Nr.:
Technical Data:
The tested D-value is............................................................................................. 9,2 kN.
This corresponds, for example, to a towed weight of ........................................... 1600 kg
and a permissible total weight ............................................................................. 2220 kg.
The tested trailer nose weight is .............................................................................. 75 kg.
For driving, the data of the vehicle manufacurer with regard to the towed weight, trailer nose
weight and permissible combination weight (vehicle weight + trailer weight), are decisive,
whereby the tested values may not be exceeded. Should you have any kind of questions,
please do not hesitate to contact our company.
Notes:
The towing bracket is a safety part and may only be mounted by specially trained
personnel. Should spare parts be required , these may also only be mounted on the
undamaged original-equipment part by specially trained personnel.
No changes or modifications to the towing bracket are permitted. Moreover, they lead to
cancellation of authorization.
When driving with a trailer, observe the driving instructions in the vehicle manufacturer's
operating instructions. The trailer must be equipped with an appropriate towing coupling ball.
If installing the towing bracket necessitates the removal of the towing eye, the towing bracket
serves as a replacement, provided the premissible towed weight is not exceeded and the
towing takes place on normal roads.
The ball and coupling must be kept clean and greased.
Important:
When using track stabilising devices, e.g. the Westfalia „SSK", „AKS 2000" ALKO, „WS
300" Winterhoff, the coupling ball must be grease-free. Follow the instructions inthe
operating instructions.
Check the ball diameter from time to time. As soon as a diameter of 49,0 mm is reached
at any given point, the towing bracket may no longer be used for safety reasons.
The approved mounting points indicated by the vehicle manufacture are used.
The mounting and clearance dimensions specified in Annex VII, Figure 30 of Directive
94/20/EC are complied with. The retrofit of the mechanical coupling device must be
inspected in accordance with the specifications in Annex I, No. 5.10 and in accordance with
the requirements of Annex VII of Directive 94/20/EC (retrofit acceptance test by a Technical
Expert/Inspectorate Service).
