Maverick Campers Operations Manual 2021
-
If you have a boat or kayak attached to the boat rack you can allow the boat rack to fully tilt over to all for the
boat or kayak to land on a trailer set up
-
There are two positions for installing the safety pins depending on the position you want to hold the boat rack in
Step 3: Open your Camper Trailer
-
Your camper trailer will usually come with 3 latches attached on each side (6 in total) which hold the roof of the
trailer to the base of the trailer
-
Remove the safety clips and put them in a safe place where they wont get lost
-
Unclip each latch starting with the latches closest to the rear of the trailer on both sides and then moving
towards the front on both sides
-
You will notice that the canvan tent inside wants to naturally open to a certain extent thanks to the gas strutted
bow poles that force tension on the roof of the canvas tent
-
Commence pushing the roof of the trailer over making sure to avoid putting your hands/fingers between the gas
strut and the trailer as this can be very dangerous due to the pressures and movement of the various parts of
the trailer during opening and closing
-
You may find that pushing is difficult around the fully vertical stage of the fold over. If this is the case, lower the
roof and start again with more pressure and allow inertia to assist the fold over
-
Once the roof is past the midway point of the fold, ensure you move to the front of the trailer and to the side to
catch the roof as it comes down. Whilst the roof folding mechanism is gas strut assisted, it will not speed up or
slow down the motion so it is important that you are doing the initial and final controls of motion to prevent
damage to the trailer
