6. Loosen the jockey wheel clamp by turning the handle anti-clockwise and pull the jockey wheel
up to provide the maximum ground clearance ensuring the wheel is pointing towards the rear of
the OPUS
® . Tighten the jockey wheel clamp.
7.
Connect the 13-pin plug into the socket (using adapter if required) on your tow vehicle.
8. Release the handbrake if still engaged.
9. Before any journey you must check that all the trailer lights are functioning correctly.
Check front marker lights, sidelights, brake lights, and both directional indicators. If you are using
either a 13-pin plug to 13-pin socket, or a 13-pin plug to twin 7-pin plugs you should also check
the reversing light and fog lights.
ABOUT UNHITCHING
Engage the handbrake. Release and secure the jockey wheel and tube to a lower position, wind
the jockey wheel down until it touches the floor and starts to support the weight of the Camper.
Some weight relief on the tow ball will be observed. The handle of the coupling can be lifted to
release the coupling from the tow ball. Continue to wind the jockey wheel until the coupling is
clear of the tow ball. Then disconnect the 13-pin plug and the breakaway cable.
When you are ready disengage the handbrake; the trailer can now be manoeuvred separately
from the tow vehicle.
LOAD CARRYING
It is the responsibility of the driver of the tow vehicle to ensure that any loads, such as bicycles,
roof boxes, kayaks, etc. are suitably secure prior to transit.
The Maximum Technically Permissible Laden Mass (MTPLM) must not be exceeded under any
circumstances.
SENSIBLE LOADING
Items loaded onto the top of the OPUS ® should be mounted so that the heaviest items are towards
the front of the Camper.
