Safety Information 

WARNING

 - Before using this product, you should read this manual, and those manuals 

supplied by component manufacturers applicable to this product. 

This manual is supplied as a reference to required maintenance of the product. Failure to use and maintain the 
product in accordance with what is outlined in this manual may affect your warranty. 

Incorrect and/or insufficient maintenance may cause product failure resulting in property loss, damage or 

injury or death.

 Maintenance intervals are critical for normal use, extreme use may require shorter or additional 

maintenance intervals. Manual content does not imply express or other any warranty, the owner should read the 
limited warranty terms included in this booklet. 

Before using this product, you should be certain your tow vehicle is suitably rated and equipped to tow the product 
safely and legally. The trailer and vehicle pairing must we within the safe 

“Maximum Towing Capacity”, 

“Ball Weight Capacity” and “Gross Combination Mass”

 as stated by the vehicle manufacturer. 

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, WHICH EVER 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
prevent loading in a manner that can cause a Camper to sway and/or roll excessively left and right. The industry 

optimum ball weight on a camper is between 9 and 11% of the total Camper weight. MDC Campers fit into this 

category and 10% should be used as the starting point. 

Modifications to The Product

Gas Systems

The installed gas system on this product is an approved and certified installation. Any changes, modifications or 

adjustment may render the system non-compliant and dangerous. Market Direct Group Pty Ltd does not condone, 

recommend, or otherwise consent to any modifications, adjustment, addition or tampering in any way with the

All MDC chassis are fully engineered and verified using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software. This ensures that 

the chassis for each model passes the relevant regulations and design rules as originally provided to the customer. 

Any modification to the chassis or drawbar whatsoever (no matter how minor) will inevitably change this – whether 

it impacts the towing dynamics, expected loads and stress points, safety chain attachment points, overall trailer 
length etc.  

Market Direct Group Pty Ltd does not condone, recommend, or otherwise consent to any modifications, 

adjustment, addition or tampering in any way with the drawbar, safety chains or safety chain attachment points.
