Safety instructions
– The Trumove S / T control systems may only
be used for the Trumove S / T.
– Practice operating the Trumove S / T in an
open area before using for the first time. This
is to fully familiarise yourself with the remote
control / mover operation.
– Always check tyres and drive rollers before
using the equipment; remove sharp-edged
stones and the like if necessary.
– The side slide switch on the remote control
(ON / OFF) also serves as an “Emergency
Stop switch”. Switch the side slide switch to
“OFF” immediately in the event of any ab-
normalities, e. g. uncontrolled behaviour of
the manoeuvring system.
– No person must be present in the caravan
during operation.
– There must be
no
persons (particularly
children)
inside the turning and movement
range (manoeuvring range) of the mobile
home.
– When engaging and disengaging and while
operating the Trumove S / T care must be
taken to ensure that no hair, parts of the
body, clothing or other parts on the body can
become caught in moving and / or rotating
parts (such as drive rollers).
– The distance between the radio remote con-
trol and the centre of the caravan when ma-
noeuvring must not exceed 10 m!
– In the event of malfunctions pull on the
handbrake.
– To prevent the caravan from tipping, direct
the tow coupling downhill when manoeuver-
ing down a slope.
– After manoeuvring, always apply the hand-
brake first, disengage the drive rollers from
the tyres and block the wheels (particularly
on downwards-sloping surfaces). The Tru-
move S / T is not suitable for use as a park-
ing brake for a parked caravan.
– Ensure that remote radio control is protected
from unauthorised access (particularly by
children!).
– Never tow the caravan with the drive rollers
applied. This can cause damage to the tyres,
the towing vehicle and the drive units.
– All wheels and tyres on the caravan must be
of the same size and design.
– In order to ensure that the Trumove S / T
operates correctly, the distance between the
tyres and the disengaged drive rollers must
be 20 mm. All tyres must have the same
inflation pressure as per the manufacturer’s
instructions (check at regular intervals!). If
tyres are worn or new tyres are fitted, the
distance between the drive rollers and the
tyres may need readjusting (see “Installation
of the drive units”).
– Do not use the Trumove S / T as a support
when jacking up the caravan, since this can
damage the drive unit.
– Sensitive objects such as cameras,
DVD players etc. must not be kept in the
stowage box near the control unit or the mo-
tor cable. They can be damaged by the elec-
tromagnetic fields.
– The empty weight of the vehicle increases
by the weight of the Trumove S / T, which re-
duces the payload of the vehicle.
– Remove plug from safety socket after ma-
noeuvring, otherwise the battery will be dis-
charged. Standby current with plug inserted
approx. 200 mA. Standby current with plug
removed < 1 mA.
General instructions
The Trumove S was developed for overcom-
ing inclines of up to approx. 25 % with a
gross weight of 1200 kg and 15 % with a
gross weight of 2000 kg, and the Trumove T
for overcoming inclines of up to approx. 25 %
with a gross weight of 1200 kg and 10 %
with a gross weight of 2250 kg on a suitable
surface.
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the
Trumove S / T cannot overcome obstructions
that are more than about 3 cm in height with-
out assistance (please use wedges as a ramp).
Due to the nature of a radio signal, it can
get corrupted by external terrain or objects.
So there may be small areas around the
caravan where the quality of reception is re-
duced, hence the Trumove S / T may stop
momentarily.
