Operating instructions:
Again tighten all securing bolts of the towing hitch after approx. 1000 trailer km, observing
specified tightening torques.
The towing hitch must be kept clean and greased. However, if a stabilisation device, e.g.
Westfalia "SSK", is used, the towing hitch must be free from grease. Follow the instructions in
the relevant operating instructions.
As soon as the towing hitch diameter is 49.0 mm or less at any point, it must no longer be
used for safety reasons.
After the towing hitch is fitted, the empty weight of the vehicle increases by 17 kg.
Installation Instructions:
1.)
Removing the spare wheel.
Only for plastic bumpers: Cut out the rear bumper in the center from below 80 mm wide and
70 mm deep.
2.)
Remove the stickers (beneath the underbody protection) at the vehicle's mounting points in
the longitudinal beams at " a " ," f " , and " h " ; in the tail plate at " b " and " c " ; in the
back cross brace at " e " and insert the caged hexagon nuts " 4 " in the openings of the body
work.
3.)
Bring the towing hitch part " 1 " under the vehicle, aligning it with the mounting points, and
at " a " and " b " loosely screw with the hexagon screws M10x35 and the 30x10.5x3 washers.
4.)
Insert the brace " 3 " between the left side-part of the towing hitch part " 1 " and the left
longitudinal beam of the vehicle and loosely screw at " f " with the hexagon-screw M10x35,
washer 30x10.5x3 and the body work. Using the hexagon nut M10x35, the washers
30x10.5x3 and the hexagon nut M10, loosely screw at " g " the towing hitch's side-part to
the brace " 3 ". Using the hexagon-nut M10x35 and the washer 30x10.5x3 loosely screw
the brace " 3 " from below to the longitudinal beam.
5.)
Align the towing hitch part's oblong hole " 1 " at " c " with the vehicle's fastening point, and
screw on tightly using the hexagon nut M10x35 and the washer 30x10.5x3.
6.)
Using the hexagon nut M10x35 and the washer 30x10.5x3 screw the towing hitch's right side-
part at " a " to the vehicle's longitudinal beam.
Torque for M10 = 40 Nm +10%
7.)
Unscrew the hexagon nut and washer at "c".
8.)
Bring brace " 2 " between the towing hitch's part " 1 " and the vehicle's rear cross brace,
and using the hexagon nut M10x35 and washer 30x10.5x3 loosely screw at " c " to the towing
hitch " 1 " and the rear cross brace. If a gap occurs at "e" between the brace and the vehicle's
cross brace, then this is to be eliminated using compensation washers 12.5x30x0.88. Using
the hexagon nut M10x35, the washers 30x10.5x3, and the hexagon nut M10 loosely screw
at " d " brace " 2 " to the towing hitch " 1 ".
At " e " loosely screw the brace " 2 " to the vehicle's rear cross brace.
9.)
Tighten all screws/hexagon nuts with the same torque.
Torque for M10 = 40 Nm +10%
10.) Put spare wheel back in place.
