When operating the system, ensure that no hairs, fingers or other body parts, clothing or any other
objects carried on the body can become trapped by moving or rotating parts (e.g. drive rollers).
In the event of malfunctions, pull on the handbrake immediately and turn off the main isolation
power switch.
To maintain signal strength, always make sure that, during manoeuvring, the distance between the
remote control and the caravan does not exceed 5 metres.
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 reduces, hence the manoeuvring
system may stop momentarily.
Always be aware that the manoeuvring system increases the weight of your caravan or trailer. So
this reduces the payload of the caravan.
Only use on single axle caravans or trailers.
Always make sure that the rollers are fully disengaged from the tyres when the manoeuvring system
is not in use. This is better for the tyres and for the system.
Always make sure that the rollers are fully disengaged before towing/moving the caravan by vehicle
or manpower. This can damage the tyres, manoeuvring system and the towing vehicle.
Always make sure that after you have finished using the manoeuvring system, the battery power
isolation switch (29) is switched off and the key is removed and stored in a safe place (out of reach
of children or other unauthorised people). If you don’t switch off, the battery will be discharged by
the small ”standby” current.
Always make sure that the remote control stored in a safe place (out of reach of children or other
unauthorised people). If you don’t switch off, the battery will be discharged by the small ”standby”
current.
Do not rely on the manoeuvring system to act as a brake.
Always apply the handbrake after manoeuvring, before disengaging the drive rollers from the tyres.
Do not use the manoeuvring system as a support when jacking up the caravan, since this can
damage the drive unit.
Do not exceed the total safe working load of 1800Kg laden weight (caravan including load).
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the manoeuvring system cannot overcome all obstructions
without assistance. Please use wedges as a ramp.
All wheels and tyres on the caravan must be of the same size and design. If tyres are worn or new
tyres are fitted, the distance between the drive rollers and the tyres may need readjusting (see
“
Installation - Mechanical Components
”
).
Sensitive objects such as cameras, DVD-Players etc. Must not be kept in the stowage box near the
control unit or the motor cable. They can be damaged by the electromagnetic fields.
Do not make any modifications on the caravan manoeuvring system (mechanical or electronically).
This can be very dangerous! No warranty claim will be accepted and we cannot guarantee the
function of the system if any modifications are made. We will not be liable for any damage
whatsoever caused as a result of incorrect installation, operation or modification.
OPERATION - MOTOR UNITS
The EN
DURO
®
EVOLUTION manoeuvring system has two motor units (1 & 2). In general they are mounted in
front of the axle of the caravan/trailer. Both units are identical but cannot be switched.
