Before starting installation under the caravan:
DO check that the caravan is disconnected from the battery supply and the mains electrical supply.
DO only use adapters and accessories that are supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.
DO check that the tyres are not over worn (fitting to new or nearly new tyres is the best option).
DO make sure that the tyre-pressures are correct to the manufacturer's recommendation.
DO make sure the chassis is in good condition without any damage and is free from rust, dirt etc.
DO stop work immediately if you are in doubt about the assembly or any procedures and consult one of our engineers
DO locate the battery isolation switch to be accessible at all times when parking and moving the caravan.
DO NOT remove, change or alter any parts of the chassis, axle, suspension or brake mechanism.
DO NOT operate the unit if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication that could impair your ability to
use the equipment safely.
Installation - Mechanical Components
These instructions are for general guidance. Installation procedures may vary depending on
caravan type.
Working under a vehicle without appropriate support is extremely dangerous. If you are fitting the
mover system yourself, it is advisable that the installation is conducted by two people, as the
mover will need to be raised up to the bottom of the caravan's chassis before the clamps can be
installed.
Place the caravan on a hard, level surface. The use of a lifting ramp or an assembly pit is ideal for access and personal
safety.
Clean the area of your chassis where you need to mount all components to ensure a good fitting.
Unpack all the components and check for the presence of all parts (see Package Contents List). Write down, on the
guarantee section of this manual, the pair of serial numbers (these are located on the rear of the motors).
Make sure the caravan is prepared for installation. Check before installation that important areas, such as drains/spare
tyre etc. do not cause any obstruction to the function of the mover.
Ensure both rollers are in the DISENGAGED position (Fig.10), as the unit will not fit correctly otherwise
Loosely assemble the left hand motor unit (1), right hand motor unit (2) and main cross bar (3) (see Fig.1). The nuts
(Fig.1b), on the cross bar (3) to secure both motor units, must be no more than finger-tight at this stage.
Place the assembly (Fig.1) loosely under the caravan. In principle, the unit should be fitted in front of the caravan road
wheels, but if fitting in this position is not possible, it is permissible to fit it to the rear of the wheels by rotating the whole
assembly (Fig.1) by 180° degrees.
Loosely fit the two clamping assemblies to the chassis (see Fig.2) and attach using the bolts, nuts and washers
(16,17,18) provided in the installation kit. Nuts must be no more than finger-tight.
Assemble the parts of the cross actuation bar (4 & 5) and connect them to the motor units (1 & 2) with the nylock nut and
bolt (factory fitted) onto the cross actuation bar-connectors (see Fig.1a). Nuts must be no more than finger-tight at this
stage.
Make sure that the Main Cross Bar (3) and the Cross Actuation Centre Bar (4) are positioned in the middle of the
caravan/mover (the centre of the bar is marked).
With the main assembly loosely fitted onto the chassis, slide the whole assembly along the chassis until the rollers (see
Fig.4a) are 20mm away from the surface of the centre each tyre (see Fig.10). Two 20mm spacers (30) are provided.
