Installation - Classic Clamp System (Fig.10.1) cont.
Fully tighten the four nylock nuts (17) on both clamping assemblies (Fig.10.1) to a torque setting of 40
ft lbs/55Nm, then the four bolts (Fig.1B) on the Main Cross Bar (3) and the four bolts (Fig.1C) on Cross
Actuation assembly (4 & 5) to a torque setting of 9ft lbs/12Nm. Re-check the distance of 20mm from
the rollers to the tyres and if necessary, loosen the bolts and re-adjust the position of the assembly.
Once satisfied with the position of the assembly, fit and tighten the Chassis Stop Nuts & Bolts (7) ,
one pair in each of the Upper Classic Clamp Plates (see Fig.10.1). Tighten to a torque setting of 40 ft
lbs/55Nm. The Stop Bolts grip the lip of the chassis and help prevent the mover from sliding along the
chassis. The main mechanical components have now been installed.
Installation - Quick-fit Shark Clamp System (Fig.10.2)
Loosely assemble the main cross bar (3) inside motor framework side (1) and motor framework side
(2) (see Fig.1). The nuts/bolts (Fig.1B) on motor framework (1&2), must be no more than finger-tight at
this stage.
Place the assembly (Fig.1) loosely under the caravan. In principle, the unit should be fitted in front of
the caravan road wheels, but if fitting in this position is not possible, it is permissible to fit it to the rear
of the wheels by rotating the whole assembly by 180° degrees.
Typically the Shark Clamp will be pre-assembled onto the motorsides for ease of fitting, but if the
clamps have been purchased separately or are not pre-assembled, they should be assembled onto
the framework as shown in (Fig.15). Before attempting to install the mover onto your caravan chassis
ensure that the fastening nuts (Fig.10.2E) are tightened, fixing the rear bolts (Fig.10.2B) in place,
allowing the top jaw (Fig.10.2.C) to translate in the vertical axis.
With fixing nuts and bolts loosely installed (Fig.10.2A and F), slide the top jaw (Fig.10.2C) up to open
the jaws of the clamp at one motorside. Hook the top jaw onto the caravan chassis, allowing the
motorside to hang in place. Repeat this process with the second motorside so that the full assembly is
suspended in place.
With the crossbar nuts/bolts loose (Fig.1B), adjust the lateral position of each motorside so that the
rollers are central to the tyre, or as close to the centre as possible, ensuring 10mm of space is left
between the tyre and gearbox for the Quattro Platinum (Fig.9). After adjusting ensure the clamps
haven't moved out of position by holding the framework motorside firmly, while reaching round and
pushing the clamps outwards until the fastening bolts and chassis are within 1-2mm of each other.
Once happy with the overall width of the mover system, tighten crossbar nuts/bolts (Fig.1B) to
9ft lbs/12Nm to set the width.
Slide the whole assembly along the chassis until the rollers (Fig.2A or Fig.4A) are 20mm away from
the surface of the centre each tyre (Fig.5 or Fig.7). Two 20mm spacers (30) are provided. Fully tighten
the clamp bolts (Fig.10.2A) on both clamping assemblies to a torque setting of 40 ft lbs/55Nm. When
tightening one clamp bolt, the other may loosen slightly so it may take several passes to get both bolts
fully torqued on each clamp. A tip is to do all clamp bolts up until there is a strong resistance before
torquing fully.
Note that no tightening/torquing of the rear nuts/bolts (Fig.10.2B and E) is required. These
components are in place purely to assist with the installation process and are not a method of
affixation.
