additional pressing button D or E (when driving forwards) or button F or G (when driving reverse).
Because of the “soft start” technology, the manoeuvring system will slowly speed up. Because of the “soft stop”
technology, the manoeuvring system will stop slowly. This allows you to manoeuvre your trailer even more
accurately without any shocks.
WARNING: When the buttons on the remote control handset are released, the trailer will
slowly stop after 0.5 second and continue to move about 2 ½” (depending on final speed).
When the buttons of the remote control handset are released when the manoeuvring
system is still in the “soft start” stage (slowly speed up), the trailer will stop immediately.
After the “soft start” stage the manoeuvring system moves according one fixed speed. The speed can increase
a little when going downhill and decrease a little when going uphill. TIP: The manoeuvring system is more
efficient when reversing the trailer up an incline.
After manoeuvring, deactivate the Royal Easi-Move manoeuvring system by moving the slide switch to “Off”-O
on the remote control handset (Fig.5A). The LED (Fig.5H) on the remote control handset will turn off. Store
remote control in a safe place (out of reach of children or other unauthorised people).
Turn off the Battery Power Isolation Switch.
Chock ALL wheels first and then disengage the drive rollers from the tires. Fully disengaged the rollers by
turning the handle on the engagement Spindle (Fig.9) until it turns no more without excessive force. The
pointer of the traction indicator label (Fig.11A) will be in the beginning of the yellow area.
Before you start driving always make sure that the both drive units are fully disengaged!
Operation - Hitching and Unhitching
It is possible to position the trailers hitch exactly over a stationary car’s tow ball using the manoeuvring system.
But please be very careful!
Use the button controls on the remote control to bring the hitch of the trailer to the car. The soft start
technology allows you to locate the tow-ball of the car by millimeters. It is better reach the tow ball with
several short “movements” rather than trying to do it in one “movement”.
WARNING: When the buttons on the remote control handset are released, the trailer will
slowly stop after 0.5 second and continue to move about 6cm (depending on final speed).
When the buttons of the remote control handset are released when the manoeuvring
system is still in the “soft start” stage (slowly speed up), the trailer will stop immediately.
When the hitch is right above the tow ball of the vehicle, lower the hitch to the ball and engage.
Release the rollers from the trailer’s tires. You cannot tow the trailer when the drive units
are engaged! Before you start driving always make sure that the both drive units are fully
disengaged!
Trying to drive away with the drive units still engaged, will damage the manoeuvring
system, your travel trailer’s tires and strain your tow vehicle!
Maintenance
To prevent the battery from becoming totally discharged during long periods of inactivity it must be
disconnected, fully charged and frost-proof stored.
Please check regularly that the rollers of the drive units are free of any dirt, or debris that may have been
picked up from the road.
Regularly clean the drive units with a water hose to dissolve mud etc.
Please check regularly the distance between the rollers and the tires. In the neutral (fully disengaged) position
this must be about 20 mm (3/4”).
Once a year have your Royal Easi-Move manoeuvring system visually inspected. This inspection must include all
the bolt/nut connections, the cables and electrical connections and lubrication of movable parts/joints.
In case of any failures or problems, please contact Royal Easi-Move [email protected]
