FAQs
Please read our FAQs page to find out more.
Can I move my 3500kg Caravan with the Optimover?
Yes, the Optitec machine can manoeuvre most caravans or trailers of up to 3500kg on hard level surfaces.
The Optimover moves trailers, boats and vans between 500kg to 3500kg and a towball weight of up to 350kg.
What makes Optimover more capable than other motorised movers?
Optimover uses a planetary gearing system and high amperage draw with a quality motor. This combination, unique to Optitec, allows Optimover to achieve incredible power from a compact and low-weight machine.
The quality materials and parts used in the Optimover means this machine continues to operate to an exceptional standard after many years in use.
Does Optimover work on inclines?
The Optimover is designed to be durable across a wide variety of settings including moderate inclines.
As a guide, it will move a 2.5 Tonne trailer on a 10% or 6 degree gradient (1m rise for every 10m) on concrete. However, the weight distribution of your trailer and the surface of the incline (concrete, grass, gravel) will influence performance on inclines.
Customers are welcome to seek our advice if intending to use Optimover on inclines. We may recommend our try before you buy option to test the Optimover in your setting before purchasing.
Does Optimover work on all surfaces?
The solid rubber tyre of the Optimover is effective across various surfaces. The optimover is most effective on concrete, aggregate or pavers but will also work on grass or compact gravel that is dry and firm. See our Videos for examples of the Optimover operating on grass and gravel.
A bit of creativity using 4WD recovery tracks, mats or timber planks may assist the Optimover where the surface is not sufficiently firm.
Customers are welcome to seek our advice if intending to use Optimover on softer surfaces, including grass and gravel. We may recommend our try before you buy option to test the Optimover in your setting before purchasing.
Can I run the Optimover Jockey Wheel from my caravan battery power supply?
Yes! We designed the Optimover to be powered from the van’s onboard battery.
We recommend 6 AWG (6 B&S) for any cable runs over 2 metres. Always install a 70 amp circuit breaker.
Does Optimover have a built in braking system?
The Optimover is fitted with a dynamic brake. When you release the forward or reverse button, the Optimover automatically engages the dynamic brake to lock the Optiover (and your trailer) in position. The wheel will never free-wheel away from you.
The Optimover is not connected to your caravan or trailer braking system.Whilst dependent on the size of your trailer, it is generally not recommended to use Optimover on gradients above 10%.
