To Operate The Quick Release:
To release pressure on the Ferodo friction discs fit the tubular handle (7) on to cam spigot (4) and lift cam to vertical
position. To apply pressure to the friction discs, simply press down until handle is horizontal, remove handle.
Fitting To The Car
1) Remove the towing ball.
2) Determine which side, and fit the reversible car plate (1) between the
towing ball and the car towing bracket (longer high tensile bolts may be necessary).
3) Lift the quick release cam (4) and insert damper pivot bracket (3) in to the slot in
the reversible car plate (1) and secure with locking stud(2). To clear the caravan ‘A’ frame pull the stabiliser towards you.
Fitting To The Caravan With A Fairing:
When fitting the angle bracket (6) to an ‘A’ frame covered by a plastic fairing it is advisable to remove the
fairing and fit directly to the metal frame. Then replace the fairing over the angle bracket.
Fitting To The Caravan.
1) Load the car and caravan as normal and hitch up in line on a level surface. Please ensure the hitch is fully forward.
2) Push the stabiliser spring arm until it is parallel to the caravan ‘A’ frame.
3) Slide the angle bracket and slipper assembly (6) on to the spring arm leaving 4” (100mm) of spring protruding.
4) Holding the angle bracket vertical scribe marks down its edge on to the ‘A’ frame. Remove the bracket and pull aside the spring arm.
5a)
Using Saddle Clamp Bracket Provided.
Alko Steel Chassis 40mm or 45mm wide and BPW Steel Chassis 46mm wide
also 1993 Swift Conqueror Alko Chassis.
i) Slide the saddle clamp bracket (8) over the chassis (tapped holes to the
front) and position between the vertical pencil marks.
IMPORTANT. On Swift Conqueror, or any other aluminium chassis, fit an
insulator between saddle clamp bracket and chassis e.g. Bulldog rubber strip
part No LC27.
ii) Engage angle bracket assembly (6) under spring and push to ‘A’ frame.
iii) Lock up quick release and lift spring arm at end between 1.5” to 2.5” (40 to
65mm). Note which row of holes in angle bracket line up with bottom holes in
saddle clamp bracket.
iv) Fit the angle bracket to the bottom set of holes with the two M8 x 75 long
bolts and lock nuts provided.
Alko 40mm wide chassis:- Fit 6mm packer plate between saddle
clamp and outer face of chassis.
Alko 45mm wide chassis:- Fit 2mm packer plate between saddle
clamp and outer face of chassis.
BPW 46mm wide chassis:- Omit packers.
v) Fit one serrated M8 washer and one plain washer over each of the two M8
x 16 set pins.
vi) Screw set pins through top two holes in angle bracket.
vii) Tighten the two long bolts and nuts and the two set pins evenly (do not
over tighten).
5b)
Fitting To Chassis Where Drilling is possible.
(Refer to Caravan handbook).
Follow fitting to the caravan steps 1 to 4 then:
i) In the approximate position of the angle bracket on the ‘A’ frame draw
a horizontal centre line equal distance from the top and bottom flanges.
ii) Position the angle bracket vertical to the lines marked on the ‘A’ frame
and mark through any two holes on to the centre line. Remove the
bracket.
iii) Drill two 8.5mm holes.
iv) Slide angle bracket back on to spring arm and push to ‘A’ frame.
v) Lock up quick release and lift spring arm at end between 1.5” and 2.5” (40
to 65mm) and insert two M8 x 30 bolts through the appropriate holes and
bolt up with nuts and washers. Tighten evenly.
