Protecting The Environment
Always behave and, encourage children to behave,
in a manner that protects the environment and
other people's property.
Please read and follow the advice contained in the
country code and the coastal code.
After many years of use you may decide that your
vehicle has reached the end of its useful life and
should be disposed of.
Please ensure that you comply with the end of life
vehicle legislation and take it to an authorised
treatment facility who will deal with it properly
to minimise any environmental impact.
Introduction
It makes good sense to check over your
motorhome at least every year.
If you tend not to use it much during the winter
months, check it over before storing it.
Any defect, repairs or adjustments can then be
made without rushing. At the start of the new
season, check and clean the motorhome inside
and out, lubricate and top up any systems that may
have been missed in the autumn and get ready to
enjoy another year of fantastic holidays and
weekends away.
1. Body Mounting
Body to Chassis
Examine all fixings holding the body to the chassis.
These may be direct connections or
via sub frame. Check that all fixings are
present and tight.
Body to Cab
Examine the joint between the body and the cab for
any signs of movement. Check that
the sealing media are sound.
2. Windows
Window Fitments and Operation
Check that the window glazing rubber or seal is in
good condition and that there is no sign of
deterioration or cracking. Check that the windows
open and close easily and smoothly. On top hung
windows ensure that the fixing
of the top hinge rail is satisfactory. Check that there
is a good weather seal when the window is closed
and latched. Ensure all catches and stays operate
satisfactorily. Repair or replace any defective parts.
3. External Doors
Security
Check hinges and catches for satisfactory
operation and ensure that the doors are held
securely shut when latched. Check that keys and
internal latches lock the doors properly. Check that
any device designed to hold the door in an open
position is fitted correctly
and operates positively.
Seals
Ensure that the door seals are in good general
condition and are free from cracking and other
signs of deterioration. Check that when the door is
closed it provides a weather tight seal.
