SAFETY WARNINGS
1. In accordance with EC Directive 94/20,
couplings of type A 50-1 cannot be used
(see Fig 3); your warranty will be invalid if
this type of towball is used.
2. For UK use, please use the extended
neck towball (type A50-X) provided with
this kit.
3. A bolted-in type ball coupling (Fig 4) is
only permissible if the thread is locked or
welded.
4. The AKS 2004 cannot be used with a
laterally attached reversing lever, on the
left side, when facing direction of traffic.
5. The towball must be free from grease and
other residue; otherwise the stabilising
effect will be greatly reduced.
6. If friction pads become contaminated
with grease they should be replaced.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
1. Replacement parts are safety critical and
should parts other than original AL-KO
spares be used, warranty and produce
liability become void.
2. Repairs should only be carried out by
trained and qualified workshop personnel.
A list of AL-KO Approved Service Centres
is available upon request.
3. Always quote the FTI number printed on
this product when enquiring about spare
parts.
Coupling
Pull the coupling handle (Fig 5/Item 1) up in
the direction of arrow. The coupling
mechanism has an open position ie. as long
as the AKS 2004 is not placed on the ball,
the handle will remain open. Put the opened
coupling onto the clean towball. The handle
must now make an audible click and return
to the flat position.
WARNING: The coupling is correctly
engaged when the green edge of the safety
indicator button is visible (Fig 6/Item 3).
Stabiliser Unit
To operate the Stabiliser (once coupled to
the towball), simply press the stabiliser lever
down as far as it will go (Fig 6/Item 2).
