Bicycle Carrier - FENDT Bianco Series Manual

5.8 Bicycle carrier

for installation on the drawbar (special accessory)
05-8
The handling of the trailer carriage changes
considerably when the bicycle carrier has been
loaded. You should adjust your speed to take
this into consideration:
• Ensure that you make full use of the permitted
towbar load when the bicycle carrier has been
loaded and correct it accordingly.
• Your critical speed will be dramatically re-
duced even if you have loaded the bicycle
carrier optimally.
• The driver of the vehicle is responsible for
ensuring that bicycles have been fastened se-
curely. The loading system must be secured
by means of the clips at hand even if nothing
has been loaded.
• Ensure that existing lighting equipment is not
covered partially or completely by the load.
Installing this bicycle carrier will nar-
row the „steering angle car -> cam-
per"!
As a matter of principle, we do not
recommend that you install a bicycle
carrier at the rear end of a camper.
Many driving tests have shown that a
bicycle carrier installed at the rear end
of a camper has a negative influence
on the trailer/driving performance of
the camper. For this reason, there
are no longer any mounting points at
the rear end of the camper (applies
for models as of 2001/2002). If you
must carry bicycles with you, you will
achieve the best driving results by
transporting bicycles on the roof of the
camper, using suitable and licensed
carrier systems.
