86 10... Positioning of multitrailer hood for maintenance and repair work
| IMPORTANT | At least two persons are needed to install and remove the hood from the platform. Before installing and removing the hood, secure the BMW multitrailer and the entire combination against rolling. For this purpose, use the parking brake and the chocks of the BMW multitrailer. The hood can also be set up and lowered with the aid of the universal lift available from BMW in conjunction with the roof racks and the hood adapter. Under no circumstances should work of any kind be carried out below the suspended hood. |
For maintenance and repair work, raise the hood using a lifting platform. Twin-column lifting platforms, body lifting platforms and twin-stamp underfloor platforms are suitable. The seating plates and areas of the lifting platform must be adjustable according to the dimensions of (Scheme 39).
Scheme 39
The lifting platform must conform to the relevant legal provisions of the accident prevention regulations and be serviced as specified. Comply with the lifting platform operating instructions, in particular the safety instructions and the carrying capacity.
Make sure you adhere to the BMW-recommended work area of 5 x 7 m and to an escape route of 0.6 m between two lifting platforms.
Please comply with the following instructions before raising the hood
- Raise only when it is unloaded
- Ensure sufficient clearance between the seating plates/seating areas and the GFP edge of the hood
- The hood must always be positioned in the middle of the lifting platform.
| IMPORTANT | The hood may only be raised at the pin (1). Under no circumstances may the hood be raised at the GFP edge of the hood (2). (Scheme 173) Exclusively for removal of pin (1), raise the hood in the GFP area. Also refer to: 86 21... REMOVING CENTERING PIN FROM MOUNTING BRACKET. |
Scheme 40
00 00... Raising BMW multi-trailer
| CAUTION | Twin-strut underfloor platforms and twin-pillar lifting platforms are suitable for raising the BMW multi-trailer. Lifting platforms with drive-on surfaces are not suitable for raising in order to carry out maintenance and repair work. |
The lifting platform must comply with the relevant statutory accident prevention regulations and be serviced according to the manufacturer's instructions. It is essential to follow the lifting platform operating instructions, in particular the safety instructions and carrying capacity!
Make sure you adhere to the BMW-recommended work area of 5 x 7 m and to an escape route of 0.6 m between two lifting platforms.
Before raising the BMW multi-trailer, please observe the following points
- Raise the trailer only when it is unloaded
- Remove a supplied loading ramp from the loading ramp frame so that all chassis areas of the BMW multi-trailer are freely accessible
- There must be sufficient clearance between the carrier arms/flat girder bridges and the GFK aprons or the front guard of the BMW multi-trailer
- The BMW multi-trailer must always be positioned in the middle of the lifting platform.
| CAUTION | You will need special additional supports for the lifting platform in order to bridge the difference in height between longitudinal member and lower edge of GFK side apron or front guard of the BMW multi-trailer. The minimum height of the additional supports is 145 mm. Use only the additional supports approved by the platform manufacturer or specified in these repair instructions. You will find appropriate examples in the repair instructions for the majority of lifting platforms present in BMW workshops. For lifting platforms that are not named, the relevant manufacturers will offer you appropriate additional supports. Please contact directly the manufacturer of the lifting platform used in your dealership. |
| CAUTION | The BMW multi-trailer may only be raised by its longitudinal members. Do not under any circumstances raise the BMW multi-trailer by the GFK aprons. Make sure the additional supports bear the longitudinal members over their entire width and no attachments or wiring harnesses are touched or jammed. Check the securing equipment of the additional supports for correct seating. Under no circumstances should any work be carried out underneath the BMW multi-trailer if it is not adequately secured against slipping off the lifting platform. |
The areas (2) on the longitudinal members (1) marked in the adjacent diagram are the best areas for attaching the additional supports.
Scheme 41
General notes on using twin-pillar lifting platforms
For the twin-pillar lifting platforms described, the BMW multi-trailer is positioned in the direction of travel on the platform. For lifting platforms which do not create sufficient clearance between disk wheel and carrier arms, move the BMW multi-trailer against the direction of travel onto the platform.
Becker & Sohne twin-strut underfloor platform
The BMW multi-trailer can only be raised if it is supported at right angles to the direction of travel. For raising, use the high additional supports (1) of Becker & Sohne.
Scheme 42
| CAUTION | Also lash the BMW multi-trailer to the flat girder bridges of the lifting platform. Flag the protruding tow hitch and the drawbar member of the BMW multi-trailer conspicuously so as to prevent injury, e.g. with a red cloth. |
MAHA twin-pillar lifting platform
The BMW multi-trailer can only be raised if you use the support plate attachment sleeves for transporters (1). Position the axle of the BMW multitrailer in the direction of travel in front of the pillars of the platform in order to obtain the specified lifting ranges and to establish sufficient clearance between disk wheel and carrier arms. The long carrier arms raise the front and the short carrier arms raise the rear of the BMW multi-trailer.
Scheme 43
Romaico-Lift twin-pillar lifting platform
The BMW multi-trailer can only be raised if you use the 146 mm high attachments (1). Position the axle of the BMW multi-trailer in the direction of travel in front of the pillars of the platform in order to obtain the specified lifting ranges and to establish sufficient clearance between disk wheel and carrier arms. The long carrier arms raise the front and the short carrier arms raise the rear of the BMW multi-trailer.
Scheme 44

MULTI-TRAILER TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
86 21... Adjusting hood pretension - Camloc fastener with spacers
Note. At least two persons are needed to install and remove the hood. Before installing and removing the hood, secure the BMW multitrailer and the entire combination against rolling. For this purpose, use the parking brake and the chocks of the BMW multitrailer. To help adjust the hood pretension, you will need four blocks with a minimum height of 60 mm.
Installation
Before attaching the hood, thoroughly clean the top side of the GFP apron of the BMW multitrailer.
It is particularly important to clean the contact surface of the GFP apron (1) (marked in gray) on which the rubber seal of the hood rests.
Scheme 141
The following text describes how to adjust the hood pretension as an example at one support area of the platform or at one hood fastener. The pretension is adjusted at the other support areas and fasteners in the same sequence.
The hood must be fixed on the platform in such a way that the rubber seal of the hood is placed under pretension or compressed. Only with this pretension is it possible to obtain a tight seal between hood and platform. Pretension is achieved with the Camloc fasteners and by using spacers.
Two different types of spacers (2) are available for each Camloc fastener (1): one thick and one thin. You can fit one, two or no spacer (2) on the Camloc fastener (1).
Scheme 142

Reducing pretension
Reduce spacer thickness, replace spacer or install Camloc fastener without spacer.
Increasing pretension
Fit a thicker spacer or two spacers.
Installation
Place spacer (1) on Camloc fastener (4) and turn until it is in a secure position.
Scheme 148
Check that hood seal is correctly seated.
Check that Camloc fasteners are locked. Lift hood by handle recesses. Hood must not be able to move with respect to platform of BMW multitrailer.
