Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the Mover SE R and TE R?

The Mover SE R is designed exclusively for single-axle caravans with a gross weight up to 2000 kg, whereas the Mover TE R is designed for dual-axle caravans with a gross weight up to 2250 kg.

Q: What is the correct gap distance between the tyres and the disengaged drive rollers?

To ensure proper function, the gap between the tyres and disengaged drive rollers must be exactly 20 mm.

Q: Can the caravan be towed with the drive rollers engaged?

No. Never tow the caravan with the drive rollers engaged, as this can cause severe damage to the tyres, towing vehicle, and drive assemblies.

Q: What should I do if the electrical disengagement fails due to a discharged battery?

You can perform an emergency manual disengagement by removing the plastic cap at the rear end of the engagement motor and using the provided socket wrench (WAF 7) to rotate the hex bolt anticlockwise.
