PULLING OFF
Engage the clutch smoothly.
Avoid wear and tear on clutch and
transmission by taking extra care.
Change gears smoothly.
Try not to jerk the clutch.
MOTORHOME HANDLING
Do not bump kerb with wheels.
When passing other vehicles allow more than
the normal clearance.
Allow longer to get up speed to pass. Do not
suddenly swing out.
Carry out all manoeuvres as smoothly as
possible.
Use nearside wing mirror to check motorhome
has cleared when overtaking.
MOTORWAY DRIVING
Speed Limits
Be sure to observe all statutory speed limits
and adapt your speed to take account of
prevailing weather and road conditions.
1. Reducing Speed:
i) In high or cross winds.
ii) Downhill.
iii) In poor visibility.
2. High sided vehicles cause air buffeting so
extra care must be taken when passing or
being passed. As much space as possible
should be given.
CHANGING A WHEEL
1. Ensure handbrake is applied and chock
the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to
be removed.
2. Remove the hub cap.
3. Use wheel brace to slacken off wheel nuts
on the wheel to be changed.
4. Position jack at the appropriate jacking
point (see vehicle handbook).
5. Jack up the motorhome until the wheel for
removal is just off the ground.
6. Remove the wheel nuts and remove the
wheel.
7. Fit spare wheel and reverse the above
procedure.
8. Tighten wheel nuts in the order and in
accordance with the vehicle handbook
instructions.
BICYCLE RACKS
Following the recent trend toward the fitting of
bicycle racks to the rear panel of motorhomes
we should like to point out the weight
distribution problems associated with such
fitments.
We would advise you to carry a maximum of 75
kgs on the bicycle rack provided this does not
exceed the bicycle racks own weight limit. The
motorhome must also be balanced to take into
account the new weight distribution. Weight
must be distributed evenly.
WARNING:
Ensure the wheel is of the same
construction and size as the one that
has been removed.
