The coupling ball with bracket including all
the parts for fitting weighs 15,5 kg. Please
note that the unladen weight of your
vehicle is increased by this amount after
fitting the coupling ball with bracket.
The ball head should always be kept clean
and slightly greased.
However, if track stabilization equipment is
used, the ball coupling must be grease-
free. Please follow information given in the
respective operating instructions.
The diameter of the ball head should be
inspected from time to time. As soon as a
diameter of 49 mm is reached at any time,
the coupling ball and bracket must not
longer be used for safety reasons.
Note:
Underseal coating, cavity protection (wax)
or sound insulation material must be
removed in the area of the contact
surfaces between the towing hitch and the
vehicle. Remove any drilling swarf and
treat exposed metallic body parts (e.g.
drilled holes) with antirust paint.
