Towing device and trailer
Hitch
Introduction
The maximum trailer nose weight when towing a trailer is 50 kg. Other infor-
mation (e.g. on the nameplate of the towing device) provide information only
about the test values of the device.
WARNING
Check that the tow bar is seated correctly and is secured in the mounting
■
recess before the start of every journey.
When the ball rod is not properly secured in the receiving shaft, it could
■
be damaged or incomplete, and should not be used - there is a risk of acci-
dent.
Do not modify or adapt the towing device in any way.
■
Keep the mounting recess of the towing equipment clean at all times.
■
Such dirt prevents the ball head from being attached securely.
