How to take the partition out of an Ifor Williams trailer?

[starsky]

Hi,
Does anyone know how to take the partitions out of an Ifor? As far as I can see it is just the middle post that needs to be removed as everything else comes with it? At the top of the post their is a clip catch which is easy enough to undo, but the bottom of the post disappears under the rubber matting and I can't see if it's easy to dismantle or not? Anyone know what lurks under the matting?
Thanks!

if its one of the old ones - a 505 or 510 then you lift the pannels from the middle pole and then take the pole out - top first.

Nothing lurks under the mat.

You should lift off the front half of partition, then the rear half. Then when you take the top clip off - you simply angle the bar and it slides out. Simples

as skippydo would say.

So if I remove the top clip and angle the pole it just lifts out? No more clips or anything to undo under the mats?

undo the pin a the top and then lean the pole towards the back of the trailer there is a hook at the bottom.

You may find its harder to get back in than take out ,its quite hard to get the angle right when putting the panels back

Not just us who couldn't work it out them

It can be stiff. As said, take the pin out of the top and put it somewhere safe!!!

Pushing the post out can be difficult the first couple of times -just shove it hard from the top, towards the rear ramp. I needed to hit it with a hammer at the very top the first time to knock it out of the holder

Once it's parallel to the ground the hook at the bottom will slide out easily. Don't lever it at any point - it bends the floor!!

Ditto breezing on putting the panels back in - it's a two person job really as the pins are tiny, need exact lining up (and at an angle) and they're damn heavy!
