ROOF LOAD CARRYING.
31
Roof bars can be fitted to your OPUS
®
Camper to take advantage of the load carrying platform.
Roof bars can be purchased directly from OPUS
®
Camper as an optional extra, along with bike and
kayak carriers.
The roof bars used require clamp on feet which grip onto the rails fitted on the roof lid ribs.
IMPORTANT! THE ROOF PANELS ON THE OPUS
®
ARE NOT WEIGHT-BEARING. DO NOT
PLACE ANY ITEMS/WEIGHT ON THE ROOF PANELS AS THIS COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO
THE ROOF.
Check the sealants on the roof panels to ensure there has been no separation of the sealant to the
panel or the frame of the Camper; this is important to prevent water ingress into the Camper and
keep the roof water tight, to maintain this feature DO NOT stand on the panels of the OPUS
®
.
Up to 2 sets/pairs of roof bars may be fitted on the Camper (1 set on each roof lid) for the lids to
carry loads independently. If required or preferred a pair may be fitted across both lids (1 piece of
roof bar on each lid) to keep the load on the Camper more central. This may be needed to keep/
maintain the proper loading of the Camper. If the roof bars are fitted across both lids be aware if
bicycle carriers etc are fitted these will need to be removed before the OPUS
®
can be set up.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN ROOF BARS, BIKE CARRIERS OR ANY ACCESSORIES
USED ON THE ROOF BARS TO AVOID DAMAGE.
ROOF BAR FEET, CLAMP OVER THE GRIP RAILS FITTED ON THE ROOF LID RIBS.
