Operation and maintenance manual PM2 23032021

Check that the wheel bolts are tight. This check should be carried out before and after the first
journey with the trailer, and then after the first 50 kilometres. If necessary, tighten the wheel
bolts (using the torque table shown below). Check that the wheel rims are not cracked or
damaged.
BODYWORK
Your trailer’s bodywork should be looked after carefully with regular maintenance in order to
ensure that your trailer ages well.
Galvanized parts do not form a protective film against rust, until the galvanization has been
subject to oxidization. Once the oxidizing process has taken place, the galvanized parts will
have a matt appearance. Galvanization can be attacked by acids and salt.
It is imperative that the trailer is rinsed with cold water if it has been used on snowy
roads (road salt applications) or if it has been used by the sea.
It is possible that traces of white rust will appear on your trailer, this is normal and unimportant;
they do not alter the protective coating of your trailer that is provided by galvanization, and their
appearance is not a valid reason for making a warranty claim.
Avoid letting any stagnant water collect on your trailer.
