Drawbar load
You will only achieve optimum driving stability
and decisively increase your safety on the road if
the drawbar load has been properly adjusted for
your combination of base vehicle and the cara-
van being pulled. The drawbar load indicates the
power the caravan's drawbar exerts on the car's
clutch.
Rules for the drawbar load:
Set the drawbar load correctly! You can, for
example, use normal bathroom scales: use a
strip of wood (approx. 400 mm long) to po-
sition them vertically under the coupling jaw.
It may also be possible to roughly estimate
the drawbar load by means of the drawbar
load scales*
m
integrated in the front landing
wheel, whereby the drawbar of the caravan
must be in a horizontal position.
Always check the drawbar load before you
start to drive!
The specied drawbar load (see handbook
or type plate) and the permissible overall
mass of the base vehicle and the caravan
may not be exceeded!
How to adjust the correct drawbar load:
1. Determine the maximum drawbar load of your
base vehicle by checking its documentation,
the type plate or the drawbar plate.
2. Your HOBBY caravan has a maximum per-
missible drawbar load of 100 kg (up to
2,000 kg technically permissible maximum
weight) or 150 kg (from 2,200 kg technically
permissible maximum weight)..
3. Adjust the drawbar load on the caravan to the
lower of the two values by loading it carefully. At
the same time, try to make full use of this value.
4. The lower of the two specied values for the
drawbar load, i.e. that of the base vehicle or
the caravan, may not be exceeded.
Stowage areas in the caravan
- Light objects
j
such as towels and light-
weight laundry.
- Medium-weight objects
k
such as clothing,
laundry and food.
- Heavy objects
l
such as the outer tent, boat
motor or crates of drinks.

If your caravan is equipped with a rear bicycle
rack, the reduction in the drawbar load created
by the bicycles must be compensated by the
rest of the load.
