General information:
Specifications of the vehicle manufacturer regarding trailer and torque load set the standards for vehicle
operation. Values specified for the tow bar must not be exceeded.
The tow bar is designed for towing trailers fitted with ball couplings and for use with load bearing implements
approved for attachment to the tow bar. Any use other than the one specified is prohibited. Adapt your driving
to the road conditions when towing a trailer. Towing a trailer affects the handling of a vehicle. Always follow
the vehicle manufacturer's operating instructions.
If vehicles are fitted with a Parking Distance Control (PDC) system malfunctioning of the system can occur
after tow bar installation since the parts (ball bar, ball coupling) could be located in the detection area of the
sensors. In this case, the detection area should be readjusted or the PDC deactivated. Malfunctioning is not
expected when using tow bars with detachable or pivoted ball bars if the ball bar is removed from its operating
position.
Always observe the standard fixing points specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
Always observe national guidelines concerning official approval of extensions.
These installation and operating instructions have to be kept with the vehicle documents.
Installation instructions:
The tow bar is a safety component and should only be installed by qualified personnel.
Any alteration and/or conversion of the tow bar is prohibited and will result in the cancellation of the type
approval.
Remove insulating compound and/or underseal (if existing) from around the tow bar's mating surfaces on
the vehicle. Seal any bare bodywork and holes with anti-corrosive paint.
Operating instructions:
Re-tighten all securing bolts of the tow bar after approx. 1000 trailer km, observing specified tightening
torques.
The tow bar has to be kept clean and greased. However, if a stabiliser such as Westfalia "SSK" is used, the
tow ball has to be free from grease. Follow the instructions in the relevant operating instructions.
For safety reasons the tow bar should no longer be used if the tow ball diameter is 49 mm or less at any point.
After the tow bar is fitted, the empty weight of the vehicle increases by 18 kg.
