SPARE TIRE CARRIER
The following procedures should be used for securing the spare tire in the travel position:
1. Put the steel hoist lift support located on the end of the cable through the rim of the tire. Clips
need to seat inside of the hole.
• The valve stem of the tire MUST be pointed in the down position or away from the
bottom of the motorhome. (Fig. 7-4)
• The hoist will not seat tire correctly if the valve stem is toward the bottom of the
motorhome. (Fig. 7-5)
2. Use the crank handle to lift the tire into the travel position. Two crisp breaks must be heard
and felt to insure proper seating of the tire for travel.
Tire must contact surface to be in the travel position.
y
WARNING: DO NOT exceed the maximum load capacities of 100 lbs. for the hoist.
DO NOT use air driven guns or impact wrenches to lift the tire into the travel position.
TELEVISION
The television is similar to the television in your home. Refer to the detailed instructions provided
by the manufacturer for additional information.
Ensure the television is secured when traveling.
y
WARNING: For traveling safety, it is important to make sure the tie down straps are
secured on all appliances such as the television, coffee maker, etc. Vibration caused
during travel will move the appliances creating the potential for them to fall out of
their cabinets possibly causing injury.
