Trailers and Towing

热度995票浏览74次时间：2012年9月03日 16:08

Vista Hire can supply 4WD hire vehicles with tow bars ready for you to attach your trailer.Trailers are a good way to free up space in your vehicle and shift weight away from it so it stays under its GVM. The GVM is the Gross Vehicle Mass, which is the maximum the vehicle is allowed to weigh. Before towing anything you should always check the vehicle's tow placard to determine if the vehicle is capable of towing the trailer.

The placard will show the tow-ball down-force rating (or trailer ball load) and towing capacity braked and un-braked. The down-force that is applied by the trailer to the vehicle through the tow-ball, counts toward the vehicles GVM, as do accessories like bull-bars, roll cages, auxiliary batteries, long range fuel tanks, etc.

Towing Safety

The maximum weight of a trailer is specified by its Aggregate Trailer Mass (ATM). The ATM is the combined weight of the trailer and its load. Safety chains are compulsory in Australia and should be attached and shortened to be no longer than necessary. They must be strong enough to hold the trailer and prevent the drawbar from touching the ground in the event the trailer disconnects from the ball. Trailers over 2,500kg must have two safety chains.

DVd)};l&H0All trailers with an ATM over 750kg require brakes, and electronic brake controllers are required to be fitted to vehicles that tow these trailers for the brakes to operate correctly. The control unit is usually fitted within reach of the driver so adjustments can be made to the level of braking applied to the trailer wheels. The control unit sends braking signals to the trailer brakes via the trailer wiring. When adjusted correctly, the tow vehicle and trailer can be slowed as quickly as if the vehicle was stopping by itself.

GCnsz&y9|0If the trailer is hitched correctly to the vehicle, the trailer should tow level with the vehicle or slightly nose down. Bear in mind that the down-force applied by the trailer will reduce available travel of the vehicle's rear suspension and this should be factored in when negotiating bumpy roads.

Overloading a trailer with too much weight toward the rear will cause the trailer to sway. Overloading a trailer with too much weight toward the front will cause it to oversteer.拓松汽车户外网 -a1e\2_0d;Z

Trailer Wiring

Vista Hire's 4WD vehicles are typically wired with either "7 pin round small", "7 pin round large", or "7 pin flat" connectors. Some information is shown to help you identify the connector you need. Please note that all pin numbers and wiring for connectors listed below are viewed from the cable entry side.
