3.2 Folding Procedure
This operation must always be done according to the security instruction (chapter 3.1). No cargo onto the trailer.
3.2.1 Open the wall latches. Use the L-wrench which is fixed to the trailer.
3.2.2 Fold out the front and the rear wall. Fold the side walls down and inwards when standing behind the trailer.
3.2.3 Open the two drawbar latches. Use an L-wrench or similar to enforce the eye nuts open. Unscrew by
hand. Assemble the eye nuts onto their bolt housing at the drawbar not to loose the parts.
3.2.4 Adjust the nose wheel into storage position. This is done by pulling the spring latch open, meanwhile turning the
nose wheel. Arrange the electric cable in order to avoid its shearing. Hang up the cable and the coupling safety
breakage chains not to fall down and hinder the free movement of the nose wheel. Open the nose wheel brake.
3.2.5 Place the FoldTrailer with its rear part close to the wall. The rear end storage wheels are recommended to hit the
floor/ground approximately 8 inches off the wall.
3.2.6 Detach first the front wall, then the rear wall. Fold down the side walls inwards. Connect the front and rear walls
onto the hinge tubes which is part of the trailer chassis front section.
3.2.7 Start folding up the trailer by pulling the frame handle upwards, meanwhile starting winching. Turn the winch
handle clockwise.
3.2.8 Continue winching until the trailer is fully folded against the wall.
3.2.9 Activate the nose wheel brake immediately and attach the secure chain onto its wall secure bracket ring.
3.2.10 Fold the winch handle by pulling the handle out, and bend it.
3.2.11 Take advantage of the folded position to inspect and lubricate the running gears, the suspension and the folding
system.
