INTRODUC TION
Congratulations on choosing the emove EM303 caravan manoeuvring system. This has been produced
according to very high standards and has undergone careful quality control procedures.
Simply by using the remote control handset you can move your caravan effortlessly into any position required
within operating guidelines. Soft start and soft stop technology allows you to manoeuvre your caravan even
more accurately without any shocks.
The caravan manoeuvring system consists of two 12V motor-power rollers, a 12V electronic control unit and a
remote control handset. To function, the motor-powered rollers must be engaged against the tyres of your
caravan. The supplied cross actuation device enables you to engage both rollers at the same time from one side
of your caravan. Once this is done the manoeuvring system is ready for operation. The remote control will allow
you to move your caravan in any direction. You can even rotate the caravan on its own axis, without moving
forwards or backwards (this functionjust can workunderthe “single-axle function”).
Before proceeding with installation and starting to use the manoeuvring system, please read
this manual very carefully and be aware of all the safety instructions! The owner of the
caravan will always be responsible for correct use. Keep this manual inside your caravan for
future reference.
INTENDED USE
The emove EM303 caravan manoeuvring system is suitable for single axle and double axle caravans.
Suitable only for L-profiled and U-profiled chassis with a chassis thickness between min. 2.8mm and max.
3.5mm.
Depending on the weight of the caravan, the manoeuvring system cannot overcome obstructions that are more
than about 2cm in height without assistance (please use wedges as a ramp).
The standard installation kit only provides parts for installing the caravan manoeuvring system within the
measurements given in Fig. 14.

INSTALLATION - SAFETY GUIDELINES
Read this user manual carefully before installation and use. Failure to comply with
these rules could result in serious injury or damage to property.
These symbols identify important safety precautions. They mean CAUTION! WARNING!
SAFETY FIRST! IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
Before starting installation under the caravan
:
Check the towing load of your vehicle and the gross weight of your caravan in order to establish whether they
are designed for the additional weight. The manoeuvring system itself has a weight of about 37kg and a
traditional lead acid battery has a weight of about 20-25kg .
Check the minimal installation dimensions of the manoeuvring system based on figure 14.
Permissible overall Weight single axle (2 motors) 2250kg hard flat surfaces, 1800kg other surfaces,
1500kg on 18% gradient.
Permissible overall Weight double axle (2 motors) 2250kg hard flat surfaces, 1800kg other surfaces,
1500kg on 18% gradient.
Permissible overall Weight double axle (4 motors) 3500kg hard flat surfaces, 2500kg other surfaces,
1800kg on 18% gradient.

Check that the caravan is disconnected from the battery supply and the mains electrical supply.
Only use adapters and accessories that are supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.
Check that the tyres are not over worn and do have the same size and design (fitting to new or nearly new
tyres is the best option).
Make sure that the tyre-pressures are correct to the manufacturer’s recommendation.
Make sure the chassis is in good condition without any damage and is free from rust, dirt etc.
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 when parking and moving the caravan.
Do not remove , change or alter any parts of the chassis, axle, suspension or brake mechanism. Any drilling of
holes in the chassis is not allowed.
Do not install the unit if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication that could impair your
ability to use the equipment safely.
INSTALLATION-MECHANICALCOMPONENTS
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 Fig. 13 for an overview of the whole assembly fully tted.
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). Write down, on
the product warranty registration card, the 10-digit serial number (this is located on an aluminium plate on the
side of one of the motor units).
Clean the area of your chassis where you need to mount all components 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 of the caravan manoeuvring system.
Ensure both rollers are in the DISENGAGED position (Fig. 10A), as the unit will not fit correctly otherwise (Note:
when fully disengaged, the pointer is positioned in the beginning of the yellow area).
Loosely assemble the left hand motor unit (1), right hand motor unit (2) and main cross bar (3) (Fig. 1). The
nuts (Fig. 1B), on the cross bar (3) to secure both motor units, must be no more than finger-tight at this stage.
Note
: In principle, the unit should be fitted in front of the caravan road wheels, but if fitting in this position is
not possible because of obstacles or a too high hitch ball weight, it is permissible to fit it to the rear of the
wheels by rotating the whole assembly (Fig. 1) by 180° degrees.
Loosely fit the two clamping assemblies (7) to the chassis (Fig. 2 & 13) and attach. Use the bolts M10x60, nuts
M10 and washers M10 (8,17,18) and put them in the diagonal positioned holes of the aluminium chassis clamp
plates. Nuts must be no more than finger-tight.
Assemble the pre-mounted manoeuvring system on the aluminium chassis clamp plates by using the two U-
shaped brackets (9), bolts M10x50, nuts M10 and washers M10 (16,17,18). Nuts must be no more than finger-
tight.
Make sure that aluminium drive rollers of the motors are approximately on the same altitude as the centre
(axle) of the caravan wheel (± 20mm). To compensate a possible unevenness (and lower the motors),
emove has a set of distance plates available. One set can compensate 15mm. In total three sets can be used
so that an altitude of 45mm can be compensated.
Adequate ground clearance: Please notice that the min. distance between the lowest line of
motors and ground is 110mm, no matter what kinds chassis or install situation.
