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.
MDC does not cover damage due to unauthorised modifications, misuse, abuse, incorrect assembly,
improper and irregular maintenance or accident or collision.
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 caravan 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 caravan via the Anderson plug on
the drawbar.
WARNING: BALL LOADING (DOWNWARD LOAD ON TOW HITCH) MUST NOT EXCEED 350KG 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 caravan correctly to distribute weight evenly and achieve a suitable ball
weight load and prevent loading in a manner that can cause a Caravan to sway and/or roll excessively left
and right. The industry optimum ball weight on a caravan is between 9 and 11% of the total Caravan
weight. MDC Caravans fit into this category and 10% should be used as the starting point.
