CLASS C MOTORHOME
9 HOME USE
The motorhome is designed to be your home on
wheels while traveling in comfort. This section will
cover the items that must be done or considered in
order to obtain the maximum satisfaction from your
unit.
9.1 PARKING
1.
Parking:
The motorhome can be stopped and parked just
like an automobile. However always remember
that the unit is longer, wider and higher than a
car and more room and clearance must be
provided.
2.
Backing Up:
a.
Mirrors:
Large mirrors are mounted on both sides of
the cab to provide rearward visibility for the
drivers. However, they do not provide
visibility directly behind or on top (clear-
ance) of the unit.
b.
Spotters:
The best results are obtained when another
person helps guide the driver in backing the
unit into position. The driver and spotter
should agree to the meaning of hand
signals before starting the backing process.
The spotter should always be in a position
that is visible to the driver while backing.
3.
Always set the parking brake and place chocks
in front of and behind the wheels to prevent
rolling away.
