Approval
Declaration of conformity:
The Truma Euro Mover Version M1 meets the basic require-
ments of machinery directive 98/37/EC and is therefore entitled
to bear the CE symbol.
The Truma Euro Mover has design approval, and a general op-
erating permit (ABE) has been issued for Germany. Acceptance
by a vehicle expert is not required (except when installing the
flat frame kit). The ABE must be kept in the vehicle.
When installing the Mover always observe the technical and
administrative rules and regulations of the country in which the
vehicle is to be registered for the first time.
Any modification to the unit, or the use of spare parts and
functionally-important accessories which are not original
Truma components, or failure to respect the installation and
operating instructions, will lead to the cancellation of the guar-
antee and to exclusion of claims for liability. in addition to this,
the operational approval for the device will be cancelled.
In order to guarantee the
validity of the general
operating permit (ABE), the
provided data plates must be
attached to the left and right
of the Mover in a clearly
visible position.
Tools and facilities required
To install the unit you will need:
13 mm AF socket/wrench 13 mm AF combination spanner
Torque wrench (automotive size)
Cable cutter/Crimping tool
Power drill/screwdrivers / 25 mm hole cutter
Portable 2 tonne trolley jack and axle stands to suit
Appropriate lighting.
Choice of location
We recommend to fit the Mover behind the rear axle. Under
special circumstances (for example lack of space) the Mover
can also be fitted in front of the front axle. Only the provided
U-bolts must be used to attach the Mover (or the U-bolt exten-
sion special accessory).
The frame of the vehicle must be kept free of rust and heavy
soiling and without any damages to the suspension compo-
nents.
The caravan must be fitted with the same size and type of tyre
on each wheel; to ensure the wheel diameter is identical, we
recommend to install and set up the mover only with new
tyres, these are to be inflated to manufacturer’s specifications.
The Euro Mover weights approximately 32 kg. Ensure the
pay load allowance of the caravan can accommodate this.
Installation of the drive units
The AL-KO Vario III / AV installation kit (Part. no. 60010-
21500) must be used for caravans with the AL-KO Vario III /
AV chassis (frame thickness less than 2.8 mm). For installation
see instructions provided with installation kit.
1. Fig. A: Remove all components from packing and place on
the floor.
2. Loosely screw all components together to form a cross
strut. Nuts must be no more than finger-tight.
3. Fig. B: Place installation kit loosely onto frame of vehicle
and cross strut, with the exception of the stoppers (C – stop-
pers are attached when installation is complete).
For chassis with U-profile
frame, use U-profile frame kit
(Part. no. 60010-09200) instead of
clamping plates provided for standard
installation. Fit the two clamping
plates to the frame as shown in the
illustration and attach using the
U-bolts and nuts provided in the
installation kit. (The provided stoppers
replace the standard stoppers (C)
and are attached when installation is
complete).
Position drive rollers such that they are in front of or behind the
tyres at wheel hub height (middle of wheel). No height com-
pensation is required for the standard installation (frame height
approx.185 mm).
With frame heights of 140 mm to 185 mm, use U-bolt exten-
sion kit (Part. no. 60010-00100) and spacer plate set (Part. no.
60010-65000) to set the drive rollers to the correct height
(middle of wheel).
For height compensation (as shown in fig. B) clamp 1 to 3
spacer plates (d) between the cross strut and the vehicle frame
(maximum of 3 plates). Use the extended U-bolts for installa-
tion.
For greater height differences, a flat frame kit (Part. no. 60010-
09400) is available from Truma as a special accessory – for
installation see instructions provided with flat frame kit.
In Germany, this flat frame kit installation must be accepted by
a vehicle expert.
4. Fig. C: Create an adequate distance between the chain
guard and the wheels/shock absorbers by moving the drive
units to the side so that they do not come into contact with
each other.
5. Fig. D: Move adjustable middle tube into a central position
and tighten the 2 bolts at the side a little.
Create the correct distance between the tyre and the roller
(20 mm) with the provided spacer by moving the drive units in
the longitudinal direction.
6. Once the drive units have been correctly positioned, tighten
the U-bolt nuts a little and then check that the distance be-
tween the rollers and the tyres is 20 mm. The weight of the
caravan must be on the wheels when doing this. Check that
there is adequate floor clearance.
7. Re-check the distance of 20 mm from the tyres (with weight
on wheels) and then tighten the nuts on the U-bolts (20 Nm for
W/F 13 mm), and the 4 bolts of the middle tube (15 Nm).
8. Fig. B: After installing in the correct position, fit stoppers (C)
immediately in front of and behind the retaining plates. The
stoppers prevent the Mover from sliding on the vehicle frame
during operation.
When the rollers are applied the minimum distance for
dimensions „a” and „b” is 10 mm (fig. C).
