• Long, lightly sloping roads are potentially
dangerous. Measure your speed from the
outset in such a manner that the carriage can
be accelerated, if necessary, without endan
gering other drivers or pedestrians.
• If the carriage moves back and forth on a
sloping road, brake carefully but rapidly if the
carriage forms a line, i.e. if it is stretched.
• Never increase speed if the carriage be-
comes pendulous.
• Do not drive down a hill any faster than you
would drive up one.
• When passing trucks or buses (or if another
truck or bus passes you), the carriage can be
caught up in air suction. Slight counter-steering
can eliminate this effect.
Driving in reverse
Your HOBBY camper has a braking system with
automatic reverse. This makes driving in reverse
possible without activating the overrunning brake.
However, in addition to rolling resistance, the resi-
dual brake force must rst be overcome.
Rules for driving in reverse
• The camper tilts in the opposite direction in
which you steer.
• Use a guide when driving in reverse.
The guide may not position him- or
herself between the base vehicle and
the camper.
Driving around curves
Your carriage is considerably longer than a car.
Rules for driving around curves
• Do not take curves too quickly or too sharply!
• Take the curve at a somewhat wider radius
when turning.
• Note that the camper can sheer out of line over
the rear.
