Pitching the motorhome

6Pitching the motorhome
Chapter overview
This chapter contains instructions on how to pitch the motorhome.
The instructions address the following topics:
handbrake
wheel chocks
entrance step
240 V connection
operation of the supports
6.1 Handbrake
Firmly apply the handbrake when parking the vehicle.
6.2 Wheel chocks
If the maximum permissible gross weight of the vehicle exceeds 4 tonnes,
wheel chocks must be used when parking on gradients. The wheel chocks are
provided as standard for vehicles with a maximum permissible gross weight
exceeding 4 tonnes.
6.3 Entrance step
In order to exit the vehicle, first fully extend the entrance step.
6.4 240 V connection
The vehicle can be connected to a 240 V power supply (see chapter 9).
6.5 Supports
6.5.1 General instructions
Pitch the vehicle so that it is as horizontal as possible. Secure the vehicle
to prevent it from rolling.
Animals (especially mice) can cause great damage to the interior of the
vehicle. To prevent this from happening, regularly check the vehicle for
damages or animal traces after pitching (see also section 12.5).
If there is any risk of frost, release the handbrake every now and then and
apply it again. This will prevent it from freezing or rusting. Prior to releasing
the handbrake, secure the vehicle so that is cannot roll away.
Do not use the fitted supports as a vehicle jack. They supports are only for
stabilising the parked vehicle to prevent the rear axle from bottoming out.
When pitching the vehicle, ensure that the supports are evenly loaded.
Before driving away, wind up the supports as far as they can go, fully retract
and secure them.
When the ground is soft, place a pad or block under the supports in order
to prevent the vehicle from sinking into the ground.
