A pre-condition for carrying out installation, maintenance and repair tasks is having successfully completed a course of training as a motor vehicle mechanic with experience in repairing trailers and semitrailers. The vehicle must be secured against rolling away when carrying out repairs. Adhere to the valid safety instructions for carrying out repairs to commercial vehicles, in particular the safety instructions for jacking up and securing the vehicle. Adhere to any local safety instructions. The relevant operating and service instructions as well as safety instructions of the vehicle manufacturer or of the other vehicle parts manufacturers must be followed. Only carry out repair work with protective clothing (gloves, protective shoes, safety goggles etc.) and the recommended tools. All replaced components must be recycled or disposed of in accordance with current environmental protection provisions, laws and instructions. Bolts and nuts must be tightened with the prescribed tightening torque. Instructions for road traffic and the provisions for preventing accidents issued by the professional associations must be followed. These BPW support jacks are intended for installing on a trailer vehicle. They provide support for the uncoupled trailer or semi-trailer, as well as for adjusting their height during the coupling procedure. The support jacks can be used with laden or unladen vehicles. The loading of an unhitched vehicle is permitted, provided the corresponding safety instructions are followed. Putting the vehicle on the road is prohibited until it has been established that the trailer with its landing gear accords with the provisions regarding road traffic regulations of the particular country in question. Operating the support jacks is only to be carried out in adherence with the relevant operating and servicing instructions of the vehicle manufacturer as well as of the landing gear. Operating the vehicle with damaged landing gear is prohibited. Safety notes are indicated by a pictogram in these installation and operating instructions. These notes must be adhered to or followed in all cases. 3

Before operating the landing gear, the vehicle must always be secured against rolling away. min. 45 No persons must be positioned under the vehicle during hitching and unhitching and when a vehicle is being supported. No persons must be positioned under the vehicle during the coupling procedure. High or low gear must always be engaged. Care must be taken to avoid the handle kicking back by ending the turning movement slowly. [] Screw in both support jacks () as far as they will go. This will ensure both supports are positioned in parallel when retracting. [] Set up the supports aligned at a right angle to the frame and parallel to one another. [3] Measure the length of the connecting shaft () and adjust this accordingly. [4] Install the connecting shaft without canting. A sliding gap of 8 ± 3 mm must be maintained. Canting of the connecting shaft may impede ease of movement. [5] Screw the supports to the frame with 0 hexagonal M bolts, hexagonal nuts and ring washers each. [6] Install the landing gear braces. Ensure an angle of at least 45 to the support is kept while doing this. Screw on the braces likewise with hexagonal M bolts, hexagonal nuts and ring washers. [7] Tighten all securing bolts with a torque wrench to the prescribed tightening torque of 90 Nm (75-0 Nm). [8] Install the holder to secure the crank handle. For safety reasons, the crank handle must be mounted in the holder while being moved. While the vehicle is in motion: - The crank handle must be installed and mounted in the holder - The landing gear must be completely retrected - The landing gear must be in a proper condition, with any defective support equipment having been repaired or replaced. When the vehicle is being supported, care must be taken that: - The ground underneath is sufficiently firm, with a suitable base being provided if necessary. - The ground must be even - The support foot must be freely movable - The upper and lower hoist limiting is not overwound. Carry out an operating check after the landing gear has been installed. The spindle must be capable of being lightly turned during this and the supports must both be touching the ground at the same time. Uneven loading of the supports leads to damage being caused. In the event of improper installation occurring, any warranty claims against the manufacturer and the supplier of the landing gear are rendered void. 4 5

High gear Lowering Low gear Raising [] Check whether the low gear is engaged and engage if required (see [6] page 6). Take pressure off the crank handle slowly when the desired coupling height has been reached. There is a danger that the handle may kick back. [3] When in low gear, turn the crank handle: - Clockwise: to raise - Counter-clockwise: to lower [4] Raise the trailer to the desired coupling height. Leave the spindle in low gear. Crank handle Support foot [5] Couple the trailer vehicle. [6] After coupling, fully retract the landing gear. [7] Mount the crank handle in the holder with the low gear engaged. Base Parking the trailer vehicle [] Park the trailer vehicle on a firm and even surface, using a base if necessary. [] Secure the vehicle from rolling away. [3] Check the landing gear for damage and repair if necessary before using. [4] Remove the crank handle from the holder and pull out until the locking mechanism is engaged. The switching procedure is made easier with a slight turning movement. [5] Turn the crank handle clockwise and through this extend the support in a high gear until it is just above the ground. The fast gear enables the clearance height to be reached quickly when extending or retracting without a load. [6] Switch to the low gear. Press in the shaft with the crank handle until the locking mechanism is engaged. The switching procedure is made easier with a slight turning movement. The low gear is used to raise or lower a laden or unladen trailer vehicle. [7] Unhitch the vehicle. [8] Mount the crank handle in the holder. Loading the supported drawbar trailer vehicle The supported drawbar trailer vehicle may only be loaded with a crane or serviced with a fork-lift truck, while adhering to the corresponding safety instructions. Do not exceed the centre of gravity of the vehicle during the loading procedure, as the drawbar trailer vehicle could otherwise tip over. 6 7
