Operation Manual

14
When operating the Mover®, ensure that no hairs, fingers
or other body parts, clothing or any other objects carried on
the body can become trapped by moving or rotating parts
(e.g. drive rollers).
The distance between the radio remote hand set and the
centre of the caravan when manoeuvring must not
exceed 10 m!
In the event of malfunctions pull on the handbrake.
To prevent the caravan from tipping, direct the tow hitch
downhill when manoeuvering down a slope.
After manoeuvring, always apply the handbrake first, dis-
engage the drive rollers from the tyres and block the
wheels (particularly on downwards-sloping surfaces). The
Mover® is not suitable for use as a parking brake for a
parked caravan.
Ensure that remote radio control is protected from unau-
thorised access (particularly by children!).
Never tow the caravan with the drive rollers applied. This
can cause damage to the tyres, the towing vehicle and the
drive units.
All wheels and tyres on the caravan must be of the same
size and design.
In order to ensure that the Mover® operates correctly, the
distance between the tyres and the disengaged drive rollers
must be 20 mm. All tyres must have the same inflation pres-
sure as per the manufacturer’s instructions (check at regu-
lar intervals!). If tyres are worn or new tyres are fitted, the
distance between the drive rollers and the tyres may need
readjusting (see “Installation of the drive units”).
Do not use the Mover® as a support when jacking up the
caravan, since this can damage the drive unit.
Sensitive objects such as cameras, DVD-Players etc. must
not be kept in the stowage box near the control unit or the
motor cable. They can be damaged by the electromagnetic
fields.
The empty weight of the vehicle increases by the weight of
the Mover®, which reduces the payload of the vehicle.
Remove plug from safety socket after manoeuvring, other-
wise the battery will be discharged. Standby current with
plug inserted approx. 300 mA. Standby current with plug
removed < 2 mA.
General instructions
The Mover® TE R4 was developed to overcome pitches of up
to 10 % for a total weight of 3000 kg on suitable ground.
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the Mover® can-
not overcome obstructions that are more than about 3 cm in
height without assistance (please use wedges as a ramp).
Due to the nature of a radio signal, it can get corrupted by ex-
ternal terrain or objects. So there may be small areas around
the caravan where the quality of reception reduces, hence the
Mover® may stop momentarily.
When the Mover® is switched off using the remote
control the control unit remains in standby. In order to
switch off completely the battery must be disconnected or an
isolating switch installed.
