Make sure the 12V supply from the battery and any 230V electricity supply are disconnected.
Find a suitable place for the Electronic Control Unit (32), such as a storage area, under a seat or a bed. Make sure this place is dry
and close to the battery (30 cm to 60 cm). The unit can be mounted on the bottom (horizontal) or on the wall (vertical). When
choosing location, ensure that the unit or antenna cannot easily be damaged.
Fix the Electronic Control Unit securely into position with four screws (19). Note: if the provided screws are not of
suitable length or type for the desired location/material please substitute these as appropriate.
Installation - Electrical/Electronic Components
Make sure that the Main Cross Bar (3) and the Cross Actuation Centre Bar (4) are positioned in the middle of the caravan/mover (the
centre of the bar is marked).
With the main assembly loosely fitted onto the chassis, slide the whole assembly along the chassis until the rollers
(Fig.2A or Fig.4A) are 20mm away from the surface of the centre of each tyre (Fig.8 or Fig.12). Two 20mm spacers (30) are provided.
It is vitally important that each roller is at exactly the same distance away from the tyre. The whole
assembly must be parallel to the caravan/trailer axle.
Ideally, align the roller(s) with the centre of each tyre, if clearances permit. When positioning, always ensure there is at least 10mm
of clearance between the gearbox and the tyre (Fig.14).
Fully tighten the four nylock nuts (17) on both clamping assemblies (Fig.16) to a torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm, then
the four
bolts (Fig.1B) on the Main Cross Bar (3) and the four bolts (Fig.1C) on Cross Actuation assembly (4 & 5) to a torque setting of 9ft
lbs/12Nm. Re-check the distance of 20mm from the rollers to the tyres and if necessary, loosen the bolts and re-adjust the position
of the assembly.
Once satisfied with the position of the assembly, fit and tighten the Chassis Stop Nuts & Bolts (7) , one pair in
each of the Upper Classic Clamp Plates
(see Fig.16). Tighten to a torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm. The Stop Bolts grip the lip of the
chassis and help prevent the mover from sliding along the chassis. The main mechanical components have now been installed.
Installation - Quick-fit Shark Clamp System (Fig.15)
Loosely assemble the main cross bar (3) inside motor framework side (1) and motor framework side (2) (see Fig.1). The nuts/bolts
(Fig.1B) on motor framework (1&2), must be no more than finger-tight at this stage.
Place the assembly (Fig.1) loosely under the caravan. In principle, the unit should be fitted in front of the caravan road wheels, but
if fitting in this position is not possible, it is permissible to fit it to the rear of the wheels by rotating the whole assembly by 180°
degrees.
Typically the Shark Clamp will be pre-assembled onto the motorsides for ease of fitting, but if the clamps have been purchased
seperately or are not pre-assembled, they should be assembled onto the framework as shown in (Fig.22). Before attempting to
install the mover onto your caravan chassis ensure that the pinch bolts (Fig.15B) are removed and put safely to the side.
In turn, open each jaw to its widest position (loosen nuts Fig.15A if required) and hang the motorside framework onto the chassis. If
the caravan chassis is a tall U profile, the nuts (Fig.15A) may need to be removed first to allow the jaws to be opened wide enough.
Loosen the crossbar nuts/bolts (Fig.1B) and adjust the lateral position of each motorside so that the rollers are central to the tyre,
or as close to the centre as possible, ensuring 10mm of space is left beween the tyre and gearbox (Fig.14). After adjusting ensure
the clamps haven’t moved out of position by holding the framework motorside firmly, while reaching round and pushing the
clamps outwards until the fastening bolts and chassis are within 1-2mm of each other. Once happy with the overal width of the
mover system, tighten crossbar nuts/bolts (Fig.1B) to 9ft lbs/12Nm to set the width.
Slide the whole assembly along the chassis until the rollers (Fig.2A or Fig.4A) are 20mm away from the surface of the centre each
tyre (Fig.8 or Fig.12). Two 20mm spacers (30) are provided. Fully tighten the clamp bolts (Fig.15A) on both clamping assemblies to a
torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm. When tightening one clamp bolt, the other may loosen slightly so it may take several passes to get
both bolts fully torqued on each clamp. A tip is to do all clamp bolts up until there is a strong resistance before torquing fully.
Insert pinch bolt (Fig.15B) and tighten to a torque setting of 18 ft lbs/25Nm, ensuring while doing this, that the retaining nut is at
the highest position. Once the bolt is secure, tighten the retaining nut. Finally tighten the pivot bolt (Fig.15C) to 9ft lbs/12Nm.
