CARE OF YOUR CARAVAN
MAINTENANCE OF YOUR BPW CHASSIS
Our warranty becomes null and void if spare
parts other than original BPW parts are used.
Procurement of Spare Parts
The code and type numbers of the axle and
chassis components enable us to quickly
determine your exact spares requirements when
ordering from our BPW agencies and service
stations. It is therefore recommended that you
enter the data shown on the type plate in the
following table so that it is readily available when
required. The type plate or the imprint is located
on the axle tube or on the housing of the towing
equipment and couplings.
Please Note: For full maintenance details of the
BPW chassis, undergear and Winterhoff coupling
please refer to the individual manufacturer’s
handbook supplied within your user information
pack.
CARAVAN MOTOR MOVERS
Any motor mover fitted shall comply with the
design, fitment and safety requirements of NCC
Code of Practice 305. The installation of a motor
mover shall be in accordance with the motor
mover manufacturer’s installation instructions.
You should ensure you receive a signed
installation certificate of compliance from the
installer.
Failure to do so may invalidate your
warranty.
The following maintenance instructions relate to
the BPW chassis fitted to your Buccaneer
caravan. They are a constituent part of the
warranty conditions. Adhere to the relevant
operating instructions of the vehicle
manufacturer or of the other vehicle component
manufacturers.
Completion of the maintenance work in
accordance with the prescribed intervals is
essential in order to maintain the operating safety
and roadworthiness of the vehicle.
The correction of any defects found or the
replacement of any worn parts should be carried
out by a BPW after sales service workshop,
unless the vehicle user has at his disposal
appropriately skilled in company workers and the
necessary technical facilities.
Please Note: When installing spare parts, it is
strongly recommended that only original BPW
components are used. Parts approved by BPW
for caravan axles and suspensions regularly
undergo special test procedures and as a result
BPW is able to guarantee their quality. However,
BPW cannot assess for every single third party
product whether it can be used for BPW caravan
axles and suspensions without any risk to safety.
This applies even if an accredited test authority
has already tested such products.
CATEGORY OF EXPOSURE & DURATION OF PROTECTION
The BPW chassis is protected by a hot dip galvanising process in accordance to
DIN EN ISO 1461. The duration of protection is according to a salt spray test to DIN 50021 standard.
WARNING: Holes must not be made without approval of the chassis manufacturer.
