MDCUSA does not cover damage due to unauthorised modifications, misuse, abuse, incorrect assembly, improper and irregular
maintenance or accident or collision.
Before using this product, you should be certain your tow vehicle is suitably rated and equipped to tow the product safely and legally. The trailer and
vehicle pairing must be within the safe
“Maximum Towing Capacity,” “Tongue Weight Capacity” and “Gross Combination Weight” as stated by the
vehicle manufacturer.
This trailer is fitted with electric brakes and a “Breakaway System.” Requirements for breakaway systems can vary from state to state. It is mandatory
to supply a maintenance charge to the breakaway battery source while driving. You MUST ensure this capability is fitted to your vehicle. The
maintenance charge is supplied to the trailer via the Anderson plug on the drawbar.
BALL LOADING (DOWNWARD LOAD ON TOW HITCH) MUST NOT EXCEED 772lbs OR THE MAXIMUM
ALLOWABLE LOAD BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER OR TOW BAR RATING, WHICH EVER IS THE
LOWEST. Exceeding these limits may result in an accident, causing severe injury or death and/or property damage.
It is important to load your trailer correctly to distribute weight evenly and achieve a suitable tongue weight load and prevent
loading in a manner that can cause a trailer to sway and/or roll excessively left and right. The industry optimum tongue weight
on a caravan is between 9 and 11% of the total trailer weight. MDC trailers fit into this category and 10% should be used as the
starting point.
Modifications to The Product
Propane Systems
The installed propane system on this product is an approved and certified installation. Any changes, modifications or adjustment
may render the system non-compliant and dangerous. MDC Campers and Caravans Inc. does not condone, recommend, or
otherwise consent to any modifications, adjustment, addition or tampering in any way with the installed propane system on all

Chassis
All MDCUSA chassis are fully engineered and verified using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software. This ensures that the chassis
for each model passes the relevant regulations and design rules as originally provided to the customer. Any modification to the
chassis or drawbar whatsoever (no matter how minor) will inevitably change this whether it impacts the towing dynamics,
expected loads and stress points, safety chain attachment points, overall trailer length etc.
MDC Campers and Caravans Inc. does not condone, recommend, or otherwise consent to any modifications, adjustment,
addition or tampering in any way with the drawbar, safety chains or safety chain attachment points.
