It certainly rotates through 90° although the stationary wheel obviously scrubs the ground which will make a circular scar on grass.

You can counter rotate the wheels via controller to pivot van on its own axis

we have a steep drive and I always put a brick behind the wheels before disengaging the mover. I would not want to keep mover on for any length of time it might damage tyres.

We have the Reich economy I think it was called not what I would call economy but there you go. I would not be without it we have a bit of an incline on the drive not much but enough to make it hard work. When we park the troll up I face it down with the hitch towards the house extra security. Makes life a lot easier and less stress full for me on any site.

Would I leave it connected to the wheels no I would not I believe it could or would damage the tyre depending of course on how heavy your hand is.

Definitely recommend the mover Morphy.

The only time we struggled with the mover was when on a site in the North East I turned the van 360 degrees so the doors where on the same side as the other vans and the Troll was on loose stones it was quite an effort to get it to turn easy for and aft though.

Just to confirm the power capability of a motor mover, my bay window campervan was stuck in my garage with a knackered starter motor so I used the caravan to tow it out of the garage and up a 10ft long 1 in 8 slope! No problems at all!
It was useful as I could sit in the driver's seat using the remote control but still able to steer the camper through the narrow garage door opening.
