LADDER CAPACITY MAXIMUM
300 lbs. (136 kg)
 DO NOT exceed the ladder maximum weight rating.
 The maximum rating includes the person's weight PLUS weight of items
carried.
 When climbing:
• Always face the ladder.
• Climb slowly with weight centered between side rails.
•
Keep a 3 point contact on the ladder at all times.
•
3 Point contact - two hands and a foot or two feet and one hand.
 Keep hands free.
•
Use of accessories such as lanyards to keep carried items tethered
will keep hands free and prevent falling items.
• Heavy or bulky items should be brought up only after reaching the
roof.
 Do not use the ladder if damaged in any way.
Failure to follow these instructions can lead to ladder collapse, a fall, or
dropped items which could result in death or serious injury.
Sealants
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and regularly
maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including butyl/putty, black
Butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof sealant and foam. In general,
sealants do not have “set” lifetimes.
You or your dealer must:
 Inspect all sealants a minimum of every six months. A quick walk around the
motorhome before leaving may help prevent potential problems during trips.
 Have the sealant replaced if you notice any cracks, voids, gaps, breaks, looseness
or any sign of physical deterioration.
 Always use the same type of sealant that was removed. Your dealer service or
parts manager can help you obtain the correct sealant(s).
The sealants may become damaged due to ultraviolet exposure, air pollution, freezing tem-
peratures and exposure to other elements. Repair deteriorated sealants immediately to pre-
vent damage. Cap seal all trim and openings at least once after the first year and thereafter
as cracks, peeling, lifting and shrinkage occur.
To check the exterior sidewall sealants, use a stepladder placed safely along-
side the vehicle. Do not prop a ladder against the body of the motorhome as it
may damage the exterior finish
