  • Page 12: Electrical Safety

    To comply with national laws on breakaway systems, you must supply a maintenance charge to the battery/batteries that power the system should it be activated. In all MDC products, the breakaway is powered by the house batteries in the caravan. For this purpose and Anderson plug connection is fitted to all MDC caravans on the drawbar. Your vehicle will need to be fitted with a power supply to a 50 amp Anderson plug near the towbar so the trailer can be connected.
  • Page 13: Trailer Lights

    50 amp fuse or circuit breaker at the battery Notes: The Projecta IDC25 DC to DC controller fitted in your MDC trailer is programmed to favour the solar panel input exclusively until it drops below a threshold voltage input. By providing accessory power to the number 12 pin, the trigger for the IDC25 will be set off to take power from both the Anderson plug and the solar panels.
  • Page 14: Gas & Appliance Safety

    Gas & Appliance Safety Gas Certification Your Caravan has been supplied gas tested and certified. Any additions or alterations to the gas system must be performed by an authorised person and will require re-certification and testing. Also note any alterations may affect your warranty on both the system and appliances.
  • Page 15: Removing The Hot Water System Flue Cover

    Gas Appliance Safety • Gas appliances are certified and have a flame safeguard feature to stop gas flow in the event of the flame going out. Never interfere with this function or replace appliances with a non-certified type. • Slide-out kitchens with cookers should only be operated with an annex fully erected. Failing to do so may affect the safety and operation of the gas appliance.
  • Page 16: Ventilation And Flues

    Caution To use your inbuilt Truma hot water system, the external flue covers must be removed prior to starting the unit. Ventilation and Flues • Check all permanent ventilators, flues (if applicable) and vents to ensure they are clear, open and unrestricted. •...
  • Page 17: Safety Chains And Shackles

    Safety Chains and Shackles Rated shackles Always use load rated shackles applicable to the weight of your trailer. Attaching Chains When attaching chains, you must always cross them and attach each chain to the diagonally opposite side of the towbar. Ensure chains are not too long and where necessary attach to links further back from the end. Periodically check the chains for visual wear or damage.

  • Page 19: Ball Weight

    Ball Weight When loading your caravan, the ideal ball weight once loaded is approximately 10% of the total weight of the caravan. Use a ball weight scale to identify the ball weight and load the caravan in a manner that achieves the desired 10%.
  • Page 20: Pre-Trip Inspection

    Pre-Trip Inspection Tyres • Before any trip check the following. • Correct tyre pressures. • Tyres are in good condition free from damage and uneven wear. • Tread is of legal and acceptable depth. Wheel Nuts • Ensure wheel nuts are tensioned to the correct torque using a torque wrench. •...

  • Page 22: Electric Awning

    Electric Awning When extending the awning always support to front as it extends. Do not allow the awning to carry the full extended weight as this may damage the hinges.

  • Page 29: Towing The Caravan

    Towing the Caravan Connecting the Hitch Here is a short guide on how to safely use your coupling to couple and uncouple the trailer from the towing vehicle. Make sure the handbrake is applied prior to coupling and uncoupling. www.marketdirect.com.au Ph: 1300 494 494...
  • Page 30 Make sure the dust cap is securely connected to the bump cover. This is done by locating the rear lip on the dust cap onto the groove of the bump cover and then pushing it in a downward motion until the dust cover is secure (there should be a slight click when it has been assembled correctly) Test if the dust cover is connected to the bump cover by applying a slight upward force to the dust cover, it shouldn’t separate.
  • Page 31: Coupling

    Coupling STEP 1 Push down the button (1) and push the locking mechanism back (2). When the locking mechanism (2) is all the way back, release the button (1) locking the plate in place STEP 2 Offer up the tow pin to the coupling making sure the tow pin cover is removed and there is no visible debris on it. Locking plate should be in unlocked position as shown.
  • Page 32 STEP 3 Make sure the tow pin is seated inside the universal and the tow pin top is sticking out of the locking mechanism (see below). Press the button (1) to release the locking mechanism there will be an audible locking noise at which point the mechanism will return to the initial position as shown in step 1.
  • Page 33: Uncoupling

    Uncoupling STEP 1 Push down the button 1 and push the locking mechanism back 2. When the locking mechanism is all the way back release the button while holding the mechanism to ensure it does not spring back to the locked position. STEP 2 Lift the coupling up off the tow pin.
  • Page 34: Connecting The Breakaway

    Connecting the Breakaway The breakaway lanyard is connected to a simple switch on the drawbar. When connecting the lanyard to the tow vehicle it should be connected to a solid part of the vehicle. Do not incorporate its connection with the safety chains. Connecting the Safety Chains Chains should be crossed over and connected with suitable rated shackles.
  • Page 35: Mirrors

    Mirrors Do not use solvents or chemicals when cleaning mirrors. Warm water and a soft clean cloth are the best method. Cleaners and solvents may affect the reflective backing causing what’s known as “creep” where the edges of the mirror discolour. Galvanised Finishes Your galvanised chassis will need maintenance when used off road.

  • Page 38: Sealants

    Sealants Roof sealants should be inspected ever6 months for condition. If the sealant has perished or adhesion has failed it should be repaired immediately. Canopy Lifting Mechanism The canopy lift mechanism requires maintenance as per the maintenance schedule. Yellow arrows indicate lubrication with 1-2 drops of heavy grade oil. (Every 6 months) Red arrow indicates protecting the spring with a lanolin based lubricant.
  • Page 39: Caravan Body Maintenance

    Caravan Body Maintenance Locks and Latches Locks need regular maintenance to ensure they operate correctly and stay free from corrosion. Diligent use of WD40 or Inox will help in this regard. Both locks and latches need to be checked for adjustment to ensure correct seal compression.
  • Page 40: Cable Handbrake

    Cable Handbrake A correctly adjusted handbrake should raise 1/3 to ½ of the allowable range at the handbrake handle. Poorly adjusted handbrakes are dangerous. Under adjusted they may allow the trailer to roll and over adjusted can cause brake linings to drag and overheat the brakes while driving. Parking brakes are mechanically operated by cable means.
  • Page 41: Adjuster Automotive Type

    Adjuster Automotive Type Adjusting the automotive style handbrake on later models is done as follows. To adjust the left and right side simultaneously: Loosen locknut A Turn shaft 1 clockwise, shortening the length exposed until desired adjustment achieved. Re-tighten locknut A For extended adjustment or to balance left and right cables: Choose the side you want to adjust and undo locknut B.

    Creek and River Crossings These crossings can be extremely dangerous even in low water levels and should never be attempted in times of even mild flooding. Towing a Caravan greatly elevates the risk in this situation and should never be attempted unless you are completely assured it is safe to do so.
