3.2 Safety coupling
WS 3000
Preparation for hitching/unhitching
• To hitch and unhitch, open the tension ball
coupler (lever in position 1).
When dealing with higher drawbar
loads hitching and unhitching is
simplied by the use of a support
wheel.
Hitching
• The open tension ball coupler is set onto the
coupling ball of the base vehicle. The tension
ball coupler usually closes by applying down-
ward pressure since the support load is
sufcient (lever in position 2).
WARNING: Ensure that the metal of
your ball coupler is bright and free of
grease.
Inspection of hitch
• The hitch is attached properly/closed if the
operation lever is in position (2).
If the WS 3000 is not properly at-
tached to the coupling ball, the
camper can detach from the base
vehicle.
The camper is equipped with an anti-rolling cou-
pling in accordance with ISO 11555-1. This safety
coupling stabilises the camper while driving and
ensures better driving performance.
Please note the additional operating instructions
and the manufacturer's safety instructions.
WARNING: The laws of physics
cannot be deed with a safety hitch.
If the limits (of speed and weight con-
ditions) are exceeded, traction and
cornering force are reduced, which
then becomes the responsibility of
the driver. Therefore, avoid elevated
risks. Please take note of the per-
mitted drawbar load for your base
vehicle.
You will nd the current value for the
drawbar load of the camper on the
drawbar load scales.
