Product Information

I also hope you consider coming to visit us here at Horton Common in the near future and our serviced pitches. 🙂 The selling dealership should be happy to fit your motor mover, but if you’re buying it from a manufacturer, consider an NCC Approved Workshop Scheme registered caravan technician, or one who is recommended by the maker. Consider using NCC-approved technicians to fit your motor mover Only the cross member protrudes below the chassis, whilst the drive units seat above the chassis rails Select your mover carefully, bearing in mind its weight. A very lightweight single-axle motor mover, such as the e-go Titanium, weighs just 24kg, while a top-spec, twin-axle mover like the Reich Easydriver Pro Twin takes up 68kg of your payload. A lightweight mover won’t eat into your payload allowance too much

Budget price movers are available but there are many corners that can be cut to reduce costs. Some use a less powerful motor or roller construction, which gives poorer performance, particularly when the tyres are wet and cold. A cheaper cost may also be reflected in poor availability of spares and after sales service, along with a short warranty period. Overall an inferior design may give rise to poor ground clearance and increasing susceptibility to corrosion through a poor paint finish. Grip mats are typically used by motorhomes to get out of trouble on soft ground, but they are also very useful for caravanners. I once observed this with one guest’s caravan, which was a particularly heavy Vanmaster, it looked like the caravan was jumping!Brushless DC motors used in some movers create far more torque than traditional motors with carbon brushes. Truma’s XT is one unit that uses this technology.

However, we do recommend cleaning and greasing moving parts before your caravan goes into long-term storage, and you should consider activating the units briefly, to minimise the chance of them seizing up, each time you visit your van. How long is the warranty? Operational Performance: Since commencement of production, our Optitec Wireless Remote Controlled Wheel has seen many applications including: Boat Trailers 3000kg, Tandem Caravans of 3500kg The result is an efficient and super-sensitive mover that can even trap an egg without breaking it and one that will manoeuvre straight, even if one or more wheels is going over obstacles. If you do accidentally hit a speed bump, for instance, with this plastic wheel, as reported to me by one of our guests, expect it to break. A motor mover with a quoted maximum caravan weight of 1,800kg may only be capable of moving a 1,200kg caravan on a one-in-four slope.The requirements of this paragraph, in relation to a motor vehicle drawing a trailer, are that a secondary coupling is attached to the motor vehicle and trailer in such a way that, in the event of the separation of the main coupling while the trailer is in motion,— Twin axle caravans are more difficult to manoeuvre than caravans with single axles. That means a special approach is needed when fitting a motor mover to a twin axle caravan.
