The tent canvas used on the bunk ends and
side panels is 10.10 ounce army duck cotton,
treated to pass the required Federal Fire
Retardant Standards. The window panels are
vinyl with a zip down section to provide light
and ventilation through an attached “screen”
panel. Well in advance of any trip, set up your
RV. Use a garden hose and thoroughly soak
the tent canvas with a light spray of water (do
not spray directly on the canvas with a high
pressure hose). After the tent dries, repeat the
soaking process three additional times. If you
note any water seepage or leaks after
seasoning your tent, let the tent dry then spray
water repellant on the INSIDE of the seam
where seepage occurs. One or two
applications of water repellant may be
necessary to stop all water seepage in seams
where thread enters the fabric.
Touching the tent canvas when it is wet can
cause leakage. During periods of rain, avoid
contact with the tent. The natural body oils in
skin will neutralize the tent waterproofing and
cause the rain to soak through. If leakage
persists, please contact your RV dealer for
assistance.

Your RV is equipped with a front deck for
hauling extra cargo. Make sure that you stay
within all weight limits for the deck and the
loading ramps. It is critical for proper handling
and trailer maintenance that you weigh your
RV completely loaded before heading out on
your trip. Make sure to unload the front deck
before unhitching your RV from the tow
vehicle.
Loading Ramps
The Baja camping trailer is equipped with
aluminum folding ramps to load equipment
onto the front deck. These ramps are secured
to the front deck to create a railing during
travel.
1. Unlock the padlock securing the cable at
the front edge of the front deck. Remove
the cable (A) from the ramps and the front
deck and place it with the lock in a storage
area.
2. Remove the two snap pins (B) securing the
other end of the ramps to the front deck.
Place these in the storage area along with
the cable and lock.
3. Remove one ramp from the front deck and
place it on the edge you will be using to
load the front deck. Make sure that the
angle (C) is securely in place for loading.
Repeat for the other ramp.
4. Refer to the OEM ramp instructions for
proper set up and usage. If you have
further questions, consult with your RV
dealer and/or the OEM website.
5. After loading your equipment onto the front
deck, reverse the above procedures and
secure the ramps for travel.

CAUTION
It is very important to “season” your new
tent canvas. If you do not follow this
procedure, you may experience some
water seepage during the first few
exposures to rain.
