wheel mounting 

It is important to maintain proper torque 

specifications to provide safe and secure 

attachment of the wheel to the hub drum.

• 

Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross 
threading. 

• 

Tighten nuts in three stages using a 
cross star pattern. 

• 

Whenever wheels are removed and 

refitted the wheel nut torque should 

be checked. Wheel nuts should be 
tightened to a torque of 115 Nm (80 ft 
Ib) for 1/2” diameter wheel stud threads 
on steel rims and 122Nm (90 ft Ib) for 
112” diameter wheel stud threads on 
alloy rims.

It is recommended that the wheel nut 
tension be checked every 100 km for the 

first 400 km of your initial caravan use 

and then after every wheel change, every 
1000km or every six months whichever 

comes first.

Bumper bars

Some bumper bars (where fitted) have 

been designed to carry a spare wheel. 
The maximum carrying capacity of these 
bumper bars is 30Kg. Please note a spare 
wheel weighs approx. 27Kg. All other 
bumper bars have not been designed to 

carry a spare wheel. Any modifications or 

adding extra load will affect the towing 
abilities of your RV and could cause 
structural damage which will 

void your 

warranty!

• 

Do not carry full fuel containers 

on rear bumper bars.

• 

Do not add additional weight to 

rear bumper bars.

Corner stabilisers 

Corner stabilisers are designed so that 
they stop the RV from tipping towards one 
end as you walk inside it. They should be 
lowered to the point where they touch the 

ground in a firm manner without taking 

any weight of the van. Remember 

they 

are not jacks

 and should never be used 

to take even partial weight of the van. As 
you move inside the van from end to end 
you cause more weight to be applied to the 
stabiliser. You should therefore never use 
force on the stabiliser handle to force the 
stabiliser to the ground thereby taking the 
weight off the van. Stabilisers that are bent 
due to excess weight being applied to them 
are 

not covered under warranty
