The safety instructions are summarised in a single chapter. In
any situation where the user of the trailer coupling is at risk,
the safety instructions are repeated in the individual sections
and marked with the warning symbol shown here.
When handling trailer couplings, tractor vehicles and trailers the relevant
safety regulations in the respective country must be observed (e.g. Berufsgenossenschaft in Germany). Any safety instructions in the operating
manual of the tractor vehicle and the trailer remain valid and must be
observed.
For operation, maintenance and assembly the safety instructions listed
below must be observed. Further safety instructions are then given in the
individual case which relate directly to the respective activity.
Safety instructions for operation
x The trailer coupling may only be operated by authorised persons.
x The installation and operating instructions of the respective trailer
coupling retain their validity and must be observed.
x Only use the trailer coupling and the towing eye of the trailer if they are in
perfect technical condition.
x Only carry out hitching / unhitching operations on firm, level ground.
x During hitching, nobody may stand between the tractor vehicle and the
trailer.
x After every hitching operation the correct locked status of the trailer
coupling must be checked by means of the control pin or the remote
indicator. Only drive the rig in the correctly locked status.
x The remote indicator does not exempt the driver from the obligation to
check before driving off subject to StVZO (Regulations Authorising the
Use of Vehicles for Road Traffic). Before driving off, among other things,
the coupling status of the mechanical connection device for the tractor
vehicle and the trailer must be checked.
Safety instructions for maintenance
x For maintenance work, only use the prescribed lubricants.
x Maintenance work may only be carried out by qualified personnel.
Safety instructions for installation
x Installation may only be carried out by authorised workshops.
x Installation must be carried out in compliance with the relevant accident
prevention regulations and the technical regulations for mechanical
equipment..
x Only original components may be used.
x Instructions and installation guidelines of the vehicle manufacturer must
be observed, e.g. type of fastening, clearances etc.
x All screwed connections must be tightened with the prescribed tightening
torque.
x Work may only be carried out on the trailer coupling when it is closed.
Risk of injuries!
The installation of the trailer coupling on the tractor vehicle must be carried
out in accordance with Annex VII of EC Directive 94/20 and must be
checked accordingly. As applicable, the relevant licensing regulations in the
respective country must be observed.
§§ 19, 20 and 21 StVZO apply in Germany. The mechanical remote control
and the mechanical remote indicator are equipment with safety components. This is why the installation must be documented.
The trailer coupling, the remote control and the remote
indicator are connection devices which require model appro-
val and are subject to the highest safety requirements.
Alterations of any kind shall cause the warranty to lapse and invalidate
the model approval, which in turn invalidates the vehicle operation
permit. In order to avoid unauthorised opening of the lock, a padlock
should be used on the master cylinder.
