SETTING UP YOUR 

Air OPUS® CAMPER

Unlatch the lid starting at the rear of the 

camper. Lift the lid 20cm.

S

TEP 6

Unwind the front winch until the strap is long

enough to reach the back of the camper. Clamp 

the winch onto the rear eyelet mounted on the 

back of the lid. Unwind the rear supporting 

winch and clip on with enough slack to

allow the lid to rise to vertical.

S

TEP 7

Ensuring that the strap remains flat and 

tensioned, slowly wind the winch in to bring the 

lid up and over the camper. The gas struts will 

take the weight of the lid.

S

TEP 8

At this stage walk around the Air OPUS® and 

inspect the tent to ensure that the canvas is 

properly located within the aluminium channels 

and that no part of the tent is caught or 

snagged.

S

TEP 10

At front of camper fit each corner of the canvas 

over the corner of the lid. The seam on the 

canvas should line up with each corner of the 

bed lid. Secure using straps provided.

S

TEP 11

Once lid is fully open and resting against stone 

guard secure in place using latch provided

S

TEP 9

Ensure the main internal air valve is open 

(vertical/inline). Tighten all external air valves 

on each air beam (5 on tent and 7 on annexe).

S

TEP 12

Turn the power key ON. Turn the pump master 

switch ON. Push the pump button and watch 

your camper inflate!

S

TEP 13

CLOSE the main internal valve to lock off air 

system. You may also wish to close your cross 

linking valves to retain constant pressure over 

an extended stay.

S

TEP 14

WINDOWS & OPEN MAIN VALVE 

BEFORE DEFLATING CAMPER.
