About your Coupling
7 PIN
The OPUS® is fitted with a 7-pin flat plug that
connects all the exterior trailer lighting and the
electric brakes to the towing vehicle. A standard 7
pin plug is required on your tow vehicle for this to
connect to.
ANDERSON PLUG
The OPUS® is also fitted with a standard 50 Amp
Anderson Plug which is connected to the caravan
batteries via 5 Amp DC-DC charger. If you have an
Anderson plug on your towing vehicle that is
connected to your vehicle battery, then you can
attach these two together whilst towing.
About your Electrical Plugs
The OPUS® OP15 comes as standard with DO35
articulated off-road coupling. When hitching the
OPUS® to your towing vehicle you must ensure
that someone is close to the trailer handbrake in
order to maintain control of the trailer, particularly
when manoeuvring on uneven ground or a slope.
IMPORTANT
Wheel nuts should be checked after
first 100km and then every 1000km.
IMPORTANT
Disconnect these plugs when the engine of the towing vehicle is
notrunning, as it will continue to draw current and you may end
up with a flat battery on your towing vehicle.
This should not be used as solar input.
