5 Pitching the Caravan
40 Touring - 03/11-1 - englisch (EN) - 0731070 - HYW-0102-01EN
5.3 Driving in Reverse
As far as all models with an automatic reverse driving mechanism are concerned, the caravan can
be reversed without difficulty. In addition to the rolling resistance, residual braking power must be
taken into account.
5.4 Corner Steadies
In order to stabilise the pitched caravan use the
corner steadies fitted as standard.
With the assistance of the jockey wheel po-
sition the pitched caravan in a horizontal po-
sition. For control purposes use a small spir-
it level.
Fold out the corner steadies after the caravan is
in an absolutely horizontal position.
Place the crank handle provided as stand-
ard on the hexagonal nut (Fig. 9,1) of the
corner steady (Fig. 9,2) and rotate. The cor-
ner steady folds out.

> Do not use the corner steadies, fitted to the caravan as standard, as a vehicle jack.
The corner steadies are only for stabilising the pitched caravan. The caravan wheels
are not to be raised above the ground.
> When the ground is soft, place a pad or block under the corner steadies in order to
prevent the caravan from sinking into the ground.
