It is recommended that installation and connection be
performed by trained specialists.
Read the installation instructions carefully before commenc-
ing the work, and then comply with them.
Please ensure that no metal chips or other contaminants get
into the control unit during installation.
In the case of screws / bolts with sealant, make sure
that the thread is free of grease / oil.
Intended use
The
Mover
was designed for use on single-axle caravans with
a gross weight of up to 2000 kg.
The Mover weighs approx. 35 kg with the cross actua-
tion device fitted.
Check the maximum towable weight for your towing vehicle
and the gross weight of your caravan to make sure that they
are designed for this additional weight.
Approval
The Truma Mover has design approval, and a general operat-
ing permit (ABE) has been issued for Germany. Acceptance by
a vehicle expert is not required (except when installing the low
chassis kit). The general operating permit (ABE) must be kept
in the vehicle.
The Mover complies with other requirements of EC Directives
and Standards (see Declaration of conformity).
When installing the Mover, the technical and administrative
regulations of the country of first registration of the vehicle
must be observed.
Any modifications made to the device, or the use of any spare
parts or functionally significant accessories other than original
Truma parts, or failure to comply with the contents of the op-
erating and installation instructions invalidates the warranty
and precludes any liability claims. This will also invalidate the
operating permit for the equipment.
Tools and facilities required
To install the Mover you need:
– 10 mm, 13 mm and 17 mm socket wrenches, ring spanners
or open-jawed spanners
– Allen key 4
– Torque wrenches (5 – 40 Nm)
– Cable cutter / crimping tool
– Electric drill / screwdriver / keyhole saw, diameter 25 mm
– 2-tonne lifting platform or a pit
– Adequate lighting

Measuring the frame height
A frame height of at least 170 mm is required at the level of
the tyre hub / tyre centre in the range of 350 mm from the
outer edge of the tyre.

Determining the installation type
1. Standard installation
Standard installation is used with a U-profile or L-profile chas-
sis and a frame height of at least 170 mm.
No special ac-
cessories
are required.
2. Installation on chassis with U-profile or L-profile and a
frame height of between 110 mm and less than 170 mm
In order to compensate for height, the 30 mm spacer kit (for
frame heights down to 140 mm) or the 60 mm spacer kit (for
frame heights of less than 140 mm) is required.
3. Installation on chassis with U-profiles or L-profiles
with a frame height of less than 110 mm
If the chassis has a frame height of less than 110 mm, a
low
chassis kit
must be fitted to compensate for the height.
If the
low chassis kit is used in Germany, accept-
ance by a vehicle expert is required
.
4.
For the AL-KO Vario III / AV chassis with a frame thickness
of less than 2.8 mm, it is
essential
to use the
adapter kit
AL-KO Vario III / AV
as a reinforcement.
5. For mounting in front of the axle on the
AL-KO chassis M, with a permissible gross weight of
up to 1800 kg and adjustable beams
– 5a. In order to compensate for overlapping frame edg-
es, when the chassis is set to the minimal length the
adapter kit AL-KO M short to 1800 kg
must be used.
– 5b. In order to compensate for overlapping frame edges,
the
adapter kit AL-KO M
to 1800 kg
must be used.
