STRUCTURAL FEATURES
Chassis Features

and is warranted by Powerglide. The operating instructions for your specific
chassis are included in the Chassis Owner’s Manual which is provided with

you by your Tiffin Motorhomes Dealership.
Before you begin using your Allegro, please read and follow all

Alignment
The Allegro motor home you have purchased has been aligned at the factory prior to shipment to you.
During the first 10,000 miles of operation of your Allegro, the chassis will have a tendency to “settle” and
readjust itself in response to the loading of your motor home.
Although it normally is not necessary to realign the Allegro before the first 10,000 miles of use; it is, nonetheless,
recommended that you have the Allegro alignment checked after the first loading of the motor home. However, if you
feel that you have noted some discrepancy or anomaly in steering operation, please contact your chassis manufacturer
or call Tiffin Customer Service at (256) 356-0261 to address your concerns.
