WARNING!
Cover for storage use only.
Do not occupy the RV while cover is
on the RV.
Do not run the RV engine with the
cover on.
WARNING!
Installation is best done with two people
and on most RVs requires working from
the roof of the RV.
Never install on a
windy day or when the roof is slippery or
wet. Please take care when you are on a
ladder or the roof.
Be sure that your helper does not pull the
cover while you are on top of the RV.
CAUTION
Installation and removal is safer and
easier when done by two people.
Cover
or tape any sharp edges on your RV that
could wear against your RV cover. Be sure
to lower any roof antennas.
Tools
Some radio antennas may need to be
unscrewed; usually with a Phillips head
screwdriver. Your cover will fit over flexible
or flat antennas and AC units.
Installation
1
.
With another person lift the cover to
the roof.

.
Carefully climb up on the roof and take
your cover out of its storage bag (Fig.
1
). Place the rolled-up cover at the front
center of the roof and unroll down the
center of the RV toward the back (Fig.
2
).
3
a.
Starting at the front, unfold your
cover from the center outwards. Continue
unfolding the cover as you work toward
the back, letting it fall over the sides of
your RV (Fig.

). Make sure the corners of
the cover are at the corners of your RV.

the elasticized corners down over the
bumper(s) of your RV.
4
a.
For class A and class C RVs
Your cover is equipped with triple zipper
pulls on the front side panels (Fig.
4
).
These extra zipper pulls allow the cover
to fit RVs with mirrors that do not fold
against the RV. Zip all three zipper pulls
down to the mirror height, then zip the
bottom zipper to the bottom of the cover.
Create an opening at the mirror height
by zipping the top zipper up slightly
and the center zipper down slightly. Slip
the opening over the mirror and close
the top and bottom zippers around the
mirror post. Finish by zipping all the
panels closed on your cover then pull
the elasticized corners down over both
bumpers of your RV.
4
b. For
5
th wheel RVs
Connect and loosely tighten the tension
panel strap across the bottom front of
the nose of your
5
th wheel (Fig.
5
). Then
connect the rip-and-grip tabs that fold
in on either side just under the nose of
your
5
th wheel (Fig.
6
). Adjust and tighten
straps as necessary for a snug fit.
5
.
For all RVs
Included with your cover is a toss puck
and straps to secure the cover to your RV.
a) Clip a strap end to the buckle on a side
tension panel. Then attach the toss puck
to the opposite end of the strap. (Fig
7
).
b) Now toss the puck under your RV to the
opposite side (Fig
8
).
c) Unclip the toss puck and attach
the strap buckle to the corresponding
tension panel. Repeat with the remaining
straps. Pull the straps tight, adjusting as
necessary.
6
.
Adjust the strap length on the
horizontal tension panels across the
front and back to fit your RV. Don’t over
tighten—the straps should be snug, not
drum tight.
The sides of your cover can be unzipped
for access to the doors. The panels can
be rolled up and held in place with the
rip-and-grip straps toward the top of each
panel.
