Hello to the community.
Some time ago I had an accident where I thought I had hitched my caravan and upon driving away the caravan came off the tow ball. I believe that I had hitched the caravan correctly because the locking leaver (Winterhoff GMBH) was in the down/locked position.
This is the first time I have experienced this so can anybody shed any light on how the lever could be in the locked position without the tow ball being in the hitch properly?
I have been asked by an insurance company to provide a report on the prove (or otherwise) that the hitch is faulty, can anybody suggest how I arrange this?
FYI, I have not been able to get the handle in to the locked position without the tow ball being in the hitch correctly
I’m looking forward to your replies
Thank you
Stuart
