Ref: AS201AFL/BFL-UM-TKI-0419-Rev. A
Stop work immediately if you are in doubt about the assembly or any procedures and consult one of our
engineers (Please refer to contact information on the last page of this manual).
Locate the battery isolation switch to be accessible at all times.
Do not remove, change or alter any parts of the chassis. Any drilling of holes in the chassis is not allowed.
Do not install the system if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication that could impair your
ability to use the equipment safely.
FOR PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION ONLY. These instructions are for general guidance.
Installation procedures may vary depending on caravan type.
Working under a vehicle without appropriate support is extremely dangerous!
Please refer to figure 7 for an overview of the whole assembly fully fitted.
Place the caravan on a hard, level surface. The use of a lifting ramp or an assembly pit is ideal for access and
personal safety.
Unpack all the components and check for the presence of all parts (see package contents list). Ensure all parts
are under good condition.
Clean the corner steady and area of chassis where you need to mount all components in order to ensure a good
fitting.
Make sure the caravan is prepared for installation. Check before installation that important areas, such as
drains/spare tyre etc, do not cause any obstruction to the function and wires of the autoSteady system.
Completely draw back all of the manually operated corner steadies.
Dismount the manually operated corner steadies from the bottom of your caravan by removing the nuts (Fig.
6A).
Before mounting the autoSteady system, please check carefully the chassis and the mounting rail mounted on
the bottom of the caravan (if applied). We supply two versions of the corner steadies (version left) and (version
right). The difference between the two version is the position of motors. Please check the chassis to choose the
correct corner steady, See (Fig. 3) for details.
Check if your caravan already has a pre-installed mounting rails with suitable size of our spindle with motor. If
not, you need to take off the improper mounting rails from the caravan bottom and mount the one in our
settings, see Fig. 2A.
Check if the position of existing mounting holes in the caravan bottom are suitable for mounting the new corner
steadies. If not, drill holes of 8mm for better installation on the bottom of the caravan and seal the old holes
using plastic body sealant.
Caution!
No drilling is allowed in the chassis of the caravan!
Take extra care to avoid any chassis members, shower base, gas pipes and electrical wires!
Mount the corner steadies on the bottom of the caravan (chassis) with the original bolts/nuts (Fig. 6A). If the
original bolts are not long enough to be matched with the original washers and nuts, please use the supplied
alternative flange nuts (7) to replace the original washers and nuts.
Fully tighten all the nuts and bolts.
Adequate ground clearance: Please notice that the minimum distance between the lowest
line of corner steady and ground is 110mm, no matter what kind of chassis or installation
situation.
Re-check that all bolts/nuts have been tightened!
Mount the ground support plates (8) on the feet of the corner steady with the supplied pins (10) and clips (9)
(Fig. 4)
The main mechanical components have now been installed.
