Drill a 25 mm hole through the floor of the caravan approximately 150 mm centrally in front of the control unit (3)
terminals. Caution! Take extra care to avoid any chassis members, gas pipes and electrical wires!
Note: The motor cables are supplied pre-wired into each of the motor assemblies.
Route the motor-cables in accordance with wiring diagram (Fig.4) (red = positive, black = negative).
It is best to try and keep all motor cables an equal length, so it is advised that each pair of cables
is
routed towards the centre line of the caravan’s length and then onward to the drilled hole near
the Control Unit
The wiring diagram (Fig.4 + Table.A (see below) depicts the wiring route when installing the motor units in FRONT of the
wheels/axle towards the ‘A’ frame. Please refer to table B (below) for fitment of the motor units to the REAR of the axle.
Note: If you are fitting two sets of motors onto a twin-axle caravan to form a full Quattro® system then both Table A &
Table B wiring will be utilised. Please refer to Fig.4.

Motor A Negative (-) cable to terminal 3
Motor B Positive (+) cable to terminal 2
Motor B Negative (-) cable to terminal 1

Attach the connectors to the terminals on the Control Unit (see wiring diagram Fig.4).
Route the Battery Cables from the battery to the Control Unit (2).
Note: Depending on regulatory requirements, which vary depending on your location, it may be necessary to install an
in-line fuse between the positive battery cable and the control unit aswell as utilising heavier gauge cabling between the
battery, isolation switch and control unit when installing a four motor system. Please consult your dealer for further details
if necessary.
The Power Isolation Switch will also need to be installed in-line between the Control Unit and the battery, so please plan
where this will be located. If available, the ideal location for the isolator switch is inside the battery compartment; usually
there is a space to the side of the battery near the mains power connection. Essentially, the Isolation Switch
needs to be in a location that is easily accessible in the event that the mover needs to be switched off in
case of any emergency.
For an easy and convenient answer to locating your Isolation Switch please consider our Isolation Switch Housing
product (ISH100). More information can be found on Page UK 13.
Install the Isolation Switch between the battery and the Control Unit on the positive (+) cable, use two of the 8mm
Battery Terminal Connectors to link the cable to the switch terminals. Nuts and bolts are provided to mount the switch
but please substitute as necessary if they are not of a suitable type. Again, it is recommended to use the supplied
Trunking to protect the cables against sharp edges. Attach the trunking with P-Clips and P-Clip Screws.
Connect the Battery Cables to the existing battery terminals (red = positive, black = negative). Two types of Battery
Terminal Connector are provided for use as appropriate.
Caution! Make sure that you do not reverse the Positive (+) and Negative (-) connections. Incorrect connection (reverse
polarity) will result in damage to the control box.
Cut the cables to an appropriate length and remove approx. 5 mm of the insulation from the ends. Fix the spade
connectors by using crimping pliers. A secure and good quality connection on each cable is essential.
Finally, connect the Battery Cables to the Control Unit (2). Installation of your Ego® Caravan Mover is now complete.
