• Check wheel bolts for firm seating using a
torque wrench.The same applies after each
wheel change.
We wish you a safe journey!
HANDLING (OPERATION)
COUPLING AND UNCOUPLING
The trailer hitch (ball-head hitch) on your BPW
chassis is design-tested. The maximum load,
supported at the coupling point must be
complied with and has the added safety feature
of “Click On” when fully located on the towing
ball.
Lower drawbar jockey wheel to the ground.
Reverse the car up to the trailer or, in the case
of a small trailer, manoeuvre the trailer up to the
car’s trailer coupling.
COUPLING:
Open coupling jaw by pulling lever H vigorously
upwards in the direction of the arrow until lever
locks open. Lower the opened hitch onto the
ball-head vehicle coupling and the lever will
automatically release. Closing and locking are
carried out automatically.
Connect the breakaway cable and electrical
plug to the traction vehicle.
Crank jockey wheel fully upwards and secure.
Release parking brake before setting off.
Visual check: the ball-head may no longer be
visible in coupled condition.
UNCOUPLING:
Lower the jockey wheel down. Disconnect
breakaway cable and electrical plug. Pull lever
H vigorously upwards in the direction of the
arrow and hold. Wind down jockey and lift the
trailer off the ballhead of the traction vehicle.
Then secure the trailer by applying the parking
brake.
WS 3000 Safety Coupling
Single-Lever System
The single-lever system, designed by
WINTERHOFF for coupling and stabilising,
provides for swift, effortless handling:
Coupling
Place the open ball coupling device on the
grease-free ball. By exerting downward
pressure - in most cases the drawbar load will
be sufficient - the ball coupling device and the
lock will close automatically.
Stabilising
Continue to push the lever down to the stop to
activate the stabiliser
Uncoupling
Slowly pull the coupling lever upwards to
deactivate the stabiliser. Continue to pull the
coupling lever up and, at the same time, briefly
push down the lock to the stop and remove
the open ball coupling device, in this position,
from the ball.
