Levelling Your Caravan
The stabiliser legs on your caravan are not designed for supporting the full weight of the trailer, they are there to
stabilise it once it is level. Using your stabilisers as a lifting mechanism will void your warranty as will extending them
with a “rattle gun” or “impact wrench”. Levelling front to back can be done by raising and lowering the jockey wheel
prior to adjusting the stabiliser legs. Getting the trailer level from left to right should be done with drive on stepped
ramps as illustrated below. Once levelled the legs can be lowered to keep the trailer stable. On soft ground you may
want to use timber sole boards under the stabiliser feet.
Site Power
The Projecta charger in your caravan is connected via the 15A exterior socket. To use site power you will require a
15A power lead connected to a 15A outlet. In the event a 15A outlet is unavailable you will need a conversion box that
will step up from 10A to 15A with a safety switch. Never leave power leads coiled when in use, lay the lead out back
and forward in a manner that won’t be a trip hazard or risk damage to the lead.
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. Support the end manually by hand or by using the extendable legs.
