3.8 Overrunning brake
facilities
The brake system must be inspected after driv-
ing 1,000 km. If the tension ball coupler can be
pushed in by hand to more than a third of the
usable overrunning path (approx. 30 mm), the
brake facilities must be adjusted. These proce-
dures should be repeated every 5,000 km, but at
least once a year.
When driving downhill on a mountain
pass, check to ensure that the bra-
kes are cooled sufciently. Put the
base vehicle into a lower gear and
drive downhill at slow speed. Stretch
the trailer combination as often as
possible to avoid continuous bufng
by the camper. Always make use of
parking areas and passing points to
give the brakes a chance to cool off.
