In the event of malfunctions, chock the trailer immediately and turn off the main isolation power
switch.
To maintain signal strength, always make sure that, during manoeuvring, the distance between the
remote control and the trailer does not exceed 16 feet.
Due to the nature of a radio signal, it can get corrupted by external terrain or objects. So there may
be small areas around the trailer where the quality of reception reduces, hence the manoeuvring
system may stop momentarily.
Always be aware that the manoeuvring system increases the weight of your trailer. So this reduces
the payload of the travel trailer.
Always make sure that the rollers are fully disengaged from the tires when the system is not in use.
This is better for the tyres and for the system.
Always make sure that the rollers are fully disengaged before towing/moving the trailer by vehicle or
manpower. This can damage the tires, manoeuvring system and the towing vehicle.
Always make sure that after you have finished using the manoeuvring system, the battery power
isolation switch (38) is switched off and the key is removed and stored in a safe place (out of reach
of children or other unauthorised people). If you don't switch off, the battery will be discharged by
the small "standby" current.
Always make sure that the remote control stored in a safe place (out of reach of children or other
unauthorised people). If you don't switch off, the battery will be discharged by the small "standby"
current.
Do not rely on the manoeuvring system to act as a brake.
Always securely chock your trailer after manoeuvring, before disengaging the drive rollers from the
tires.
Do not use the manoeuvring system as a support when jacking up the trailer, since this can damage
the drive unit.
Do not exceed the total Safe Working Load of 7750 lbs Laden Weight (GVWR).
Depending on the weight of the trailer, the manoeuvring system cannot overcome all obstructions
without assistance. Please use wedges as a ramp.
All wheels and tires on the trailer must be of the same size and design. If tires are worn or new tires
are fitted, the distance between the drive rollers and the tires may need readjusting (see
"Installation - Mechanical Components").
Sensitive objects such as cameras, DVD-Players etc. must not be kept in the stowage box near the
control unit or the motor cable. They can be damaged by the electromagnetic fields.
Do not make any modifications on the trailer manoeuvring system (mechanical or electronically).
This can be very dangerous! No warranty claim will be accepted and we cannot guarantee the
function of the manoeuvring system if any modifications are made. We will not be liable for any
damage whatsoever caused as a result of incorrect installation, operation or modification.

The yellow-green-red traction indicator label (Fig.11A), on the side of each Motor Unit indicates if the roller is
depressing the tire sufficiently to provide adequate traction.
