This camper is fitted with electric brakes and a “Breakaway System”. Requirements for breakaway systems can vary from
state to state. It is mandatory to supply a maintenance charge to the breakaway battery source while driving. You MUST
ensure this capability is fitted to your vehicle. The maintenance charge is supplied to the camper via the Anderson plug on
the drawbar.
WARNING: BALL LOADING (DOWNWARD LOAD ON TOW HITCH) MUST NOT EXCEED 300KG OR THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE
LOAD BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER OR TOW BAR RATING, WHICHEVER IS THE LOWEST. Exceeding these limits may
result in an accident causing serious injury or death and/or property damage.
It is important to load your camper correctly to distribute weight evenly and achieve a suitable ball weight load and

weight on a camper is between 9 and 11% of the total camper weight.
