Just brought a new caravan with a powrtouch classic 3 motor mover installed ..
Now if I get a pair of corner leg winder locks & lock my motor mover into the wheels ,then install the locks will this be better then a wheel clamp ..
Will this work ?

Are you talking about leg winder locks to lock the motor mover on the wheels ?   Not sure how this would work.

You are not supposed to leave motor movers engaged for any length of time as it could damage the tyres.

you would still require a wheel clamp fitted to satisfy the insurance co.

Definitely don't leave the mover engaged. The rollers should be in contact with the tyres only when you are moving the caravan.
