Safety instructions
-
The control systems TE R4 (master or slave) may only be
used for the Mover® TE R4.
-
Practice operating the Mover® in an open area before using
for the first time. This to fully familiarise yourself with
the handset / Mover® operation.
-
Always check tyres and drive rollers before using the equip-
ment; remove sharp-edged stones and the like if necessary.
-
No person must be present in the caravan during operation.
-
All persons (particularly children) must remain outside
the Mover® operating area.

-
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.
