DEVICE FOR AK160/300 COUPLINGS &
AKS 1300 STABILISER.
PLEASE ENSURE YOU READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY,
BEFORE COMMENCING TO OPERATE THIS PRODUCT.
GENERAL:
1) The AL-KO Security (Hitch Lock) Device is effective against the following
unauthorized operations:
a) Uncoupling from the towing vehicle
b) Coupling onto another towing vehicle
c) Theft of the Coupling/Stabiliser from the trailer/caravan.
2) AL-KO recommends the use of the AL-KO Safety Ball to complement the AL-KO Security.
The Safety ball is inserted into the coupling area of the Stabiliser, before the AL-KO Safety is
locked into position (Fig. 1). This prevents your caravan from being coupled to any other tow
hook or smaller towball and being towed away. The AL-KO Safety Ball is available from most
Caravan Shops or if this Safety Device was purchased via AL-KO’S direct Mail Order Service*,
the Safety Ball is provided with the kit.
APPROVAL:
1) This product holds full TUV approval and is also Sold Secure Approved.
WARRANTY:
1) Product warranty is given in accordance with S10, Clause 1-7 of the General Terms of
Business and is usually 12 months from date of purchase.
* Please note - the Safety Ball is only included with kits purchased direct from AL-KO‘s main
factory - if this item is purchased from a caravan dealer then the Safety Ball is an additional
item.
