MOTORWAY HANDLING
MOTORWAY HANDLING
Best Practice
To gain the most enjoyment and ensure a long life
for your motorhome, the following should be
observed:
• Do not bump kerbs with wheels.
• When passing other vehicles allow more
than the normal clearance.
• Allow longer to get up speed to pass. Do not
suddenly swing out.
• Carry out all manoeuvers as smoothly as
possible.
• Use the nearside wing mirror to check your
motorhome has cleared when overtaking.
• Slow down and take care when driving over
raised speed bumps, ‘sleeping policemen’ or
when embarking/ disembarking ferries.
• In high or cross winds, travelling downhill or
in conditions of poor visibility reduce your
speed.
• High-sided vehicles can cause air buffeting so
extra care must be taken when passing or
being passed. Leave as much space as possible
when overtaking these types of vehicles
Speed Limits
Be sure to observe all statutory speed limits and
adapt your speed to take account of prevailing
weather and road conditions.
WARNING
Ensure the wheel is of the same
construction and size as the one that has
been removed.
Bicycle Racks
Fitting a bicycle rack to the rear panel of a
motorhome will affect how weight is distributed.
There are restraints to be aware of with such
fitments.
We would advise you to carry a maximum of
75kgs on the bicycle rack provided this does not
exceed the bicycle racks own weight limit.
The motorhome must also be balanced to take
into account the new weight distribution. Weight
must be distributed evenly.
Bicycle racks are not standard fit or supplied as
an optional extra by The Explorer Group.
Explorer cannot be held responsible for problems
related to a bicycle rack fitted by a third party. A
copy of the rear panel drawing must be obtained
from The Explorer Group to ensure correct
fixing points are located.
