Stabiliser Legs
Stabiliser legs are installed to stabilise the caravan or camper when setup. Stabiliser legs should never be used to
jack a trailer as they are comprised of small bevel gears held in place by small roll pins that will break if overloaded.
Stabilisers are best set vertical or 90 degrees to the chassis where possible. When set and an angle the user must
be careful not to overload them causing locking pins or the leg itself to bend. Never use impact wrenches to wind
the legs, the impact may damage the gears. When using a power tool, use an electric drill with a safety clutch set
low to medium to avoid injury or damage to the stabilisers.
Electric Awning
When extending the awning always support to front as it extends. Do not allow the awning to carry the full
extended weight as this may damage the hinges. Support the end manually by hand or by using the extendable legs.
Never allow water to pool on the awning, during rain lower one side to a level that allows the water to freely run
off and not pool. In light to moderate breeze guy ropes should be used. In stronger winds the awning should be
retracted completely. Always set the awning for wet conditions if leaving up overnight in case of unexpected rain. If
high winds are possible, pack the awning away overnight. It is your responsibility to know the weather prediction.
During rain, the awning should be lowered on one side as illustrated below
.
To use guy ropes with your awning you should purchase sail track inserts pictured below that slide into the sail
track on the awning fascia. The displayed item is available from the brand Thule.
