SECTION 12
STORAGE & MAINTENANCE
refrigerator exterior doors need to be kept
clean and free of obstructions (i.e., insect
nests, mud daubers, etc.) while the
appliances (if so equipped) are in use.
W
INDOWS
Any ventilating window may permit water
inside, especially during heavy rainstorms.
Condensation will also cause water to
accumulate on windows and in the tracks.
The window “glass” can normally be cleaned
with a sponge and water. Use glass cleaner
to remove wax, oil, grease, dead insects, etc.
After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a
clean, soft cloth.

Locks on entrance and baggage doors need
biannual lubrication using a light coat of
silicone spray. Do not permit the spray to
come into contact with the tent. Conditions
such as rain, salt, dust and pollution may
increase the maintenance needs.

Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway,
climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting
chemicals used during the winter months will
damage the paint, inviting rust and other
deterioration. Periodically inspect the exterior
exposed areas, clean and repaint the steel
members occasionally and whenever you
notice rust or paint chipped away, to insure
protection.

The E-Z lube feature on your axles provides
the ability for the bearings to be periodically
lubricated without removing the hubs from the
axle. This feature consists of axle spindles
that have been specially drilled and fitted with
grease zerks in their ends. When grease is
pumped into the zerk, it is channeled to the
inner bearing and then flows back to the outer
bearing and eventually back out the grease
cap hole. If you have further questions,
consult with your dealer.
The convenient lubrication provisions of the
E-Z lube must not replace periodic inspection
and maintenance of the bearings. Use a
hand-operated grease gun; improper use of a
commercial grease gun may damage the
seals.

The rear bumper of your RV is not designed
to carry cargo. Items that extend beyond the
bumper OR weigh over 100 lbs. (45kg) will
place undo strain on the bumper. The 100 lb.
bumper capacity includes the weight of the
spare tire that may have been attached at the
factory.
Some items may fall within the given weight
range, however, can still cause damage. Over
time, weight added to the bumper will cause
damage from the motion created while
traveling. In addition, extra weight behind the
axle may reduce the hitch weight (leading to
adverse handling conditions from wind gusts
and/or passing traffic).

The rubber roof on your RV is manufactured
by Alpha Systems. Read and follow the OEM
operator’s manual when cleaning the rubber
roof. If you have questions, contact your

Your RV may be equipped with an optional
roof rack and ladder. The RV roof has
decking under the rubber roof membrane to
allow you to walk on the roof (with caution) to
do maintenance.
Do not add items to the RV rear bumper.
Add-on items will eventually damage your
bumper. Damage caused by such
aftermarket equipment installation or
improper loading voids the
