Caution! Make sure that you do not reverse the positive (+) and negative (-) connections.
Incorrect connection (reverse polarity) will result in damage to the control unit.
Seal the 25mm hole in vehicle under body using plastic body sealant.
Now that the control unit is mounted and connected, the level XYZ direction can be defined and the level to be
calibrated.
Based on the table below figure 16 determine the position of the three-level switches (Fig. 14F). First put the
switches in the correct position (Fig. 16.1 until 16.8). Then make sure you caravan is levelled out in all
Directions by using a bubble level. The best result is obtained by the use of a bubble level (the longer the better)
to put on the caravan floor and to measure the level at the position of the axis (centre caravan). Once the
caravan is levelled out, the level of the caravan manoeuvring system should be calibrated.

Check the electronic installation in accordance with the installation instructions. Ensure that the drive
rollers are not engaged, the caravan battery and the remote handset battery are in good condition and
fully charged.
x
Please ensure that the battery isolation switch is on.
x
Activate the remote handset by sliding the slide switch up (Fig. 13A). The green LED (Fig. 13H) and the red
LED (Fig. 13Q) on the remote handset will now light up continuously.
x
Press simultaneously the four buttons 13E (right forward), 13F (left rear), 13D (left forward) and 13G
(right rear) of the remote handset and hold (about 4 seconds). The red LED (Fig. 14D) will light on the
control unit.
x
After 4 seconds, the buttons can be released and the level calibrated. The green LED in the level display
will light up continuously.
Finally find a suitable place for the remote handset wall holder (31) and fix this by the supplied screws (out of
reach of children or other unauthorised people). Possibly near a wall outlet for easy to charging the remote
handset.
Installation of the caravan manoeuvring system is now complete.
INSTALLATION – TWIN AXLE
This manual describes the general installation and use of the manoeuvring system for single axle caravans.
When you use the manoeuvring system for a twin axle caravan, please check the following:
Permissible overall weight twin axle (2 motors)
2000kg
(1750kg on 18% gradient)
Permissible overall weight twin axle (4 motors)
3000kg
(2350kg on 18% gradient)
2 motors:
The procedure for installing a 2 motors manoeuvring system on a twin axle caravan is the same as for a single
axle caravan. The control unit only must be prepared for twin axle use:
Turn off the battery power isolation switch and move the single/twin axle function switch (Fig 14S/T) on the
control unit to the twin axle position (Fig. 14T), so that the manoeuvring system can be used for a twin axle
caravan. In the twin axle function when making curves, all wheels will drive but at a different speed.
4 motors:
The procedure for installing a 4 motors manoeuvring system on a twin axle caravan is similar than for a single
axle caravan but then with two sets of manoeuvring system. The procedures
INSTALLATION - MECHANICAL
COMPONENTS
and
INSTALLATION - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS
should be completely
followed though for both systems.
Note:
When installing the four motors it will be necessary to use
one
higher capacity battery to supply both
sets of manoeuvring system (including two control units and two of battery power isolation switches). Do not
use two separate batteries for a 4 motors manoeuvring system on a twin axle caravan.
Then connect the twin axle communication cable (34) to the twin axle communication cable socket (Fig. 14G) of
the two control units. This allows both control units to communicate with each other.
Now
both
control units must be prepared for twin axle use:
Turn off the battery power isolation switch and move the single/twin axle function switch (Fig 14S/T) on the
control unit to the twin axle position (Fig. 14T), so that the manoeuvring system can be used for a twin axle
caravan. In the twin axle function when making curves, all wheels will drive but at a different speed.
Now that both control units are connected with each other and are set in the twin axle mode, the manoeuvring
system be operated via the main (master) control unit remote handset. The second control unit (slave) will
follow the commands of the main control unit. Also the level display will be controlled on the situation of the
main control unit.
The remote handset and the control unit are synchronised with each other in the factory. If the control unit or
the remote handset is replaced, they must be re-synchronised as described below:
