Section 4: Vehicle Operation
Vinyl Tire Cover (if so equipped)
Your tires are manufactured with components that cause “bleeding” onto the tire cover. To
prevent this, it is recommended to use a separator (garbage bag, paper, cloth, etc.) between
the tire and the cover.
Setting Up Your Recreation Vehicle
Position the RV as desired.
Level the RV (side-to-side). Leveling your recreation vehicle is important as the
water drainage systems are designed with proper slope and must be level for prop-
er operation, and the appliances perform best when level.
Block the wheels securely to prevent the RV from moving.
Travel Trailer Set Up
1. Unhook the wire harness/connector plug, safety chains and breakaway switch lanyard.
2. Install the dolly wheel or platform.
3. Release the weight distributing bars (customer supplied).
4. Open the tongue jack coupler latch.
5. Turn the tongue jack crank to raise the coupler above the hitch ball.
6. Level the RV (front-to-back) with the tongue jack crank.
7. lower stabilizer jacks (If applicable).
8. Pull the tow vehicle away, as desired.
Fifth Wheel Set Up
1. Drop the landing gear (important!) See the operator’s manual for proper operation.
2. Disconnect the wire harness/connector plug and breakaway switch lanyard.
3. Drop the truck tailgate (if applicable).
4.
Gently put your truck into reverse (don’t give it any fuel/acceleration). This effectively
moves the kingpin off the locking bar that will allow you to disengage it.
5. Step on brake and apply parking brake.
6. Disengage the locking bar and unhitch.
7. Drive away.
8.
Adjust the fifth-wheel height for proper front to back leveling of the RV.
Caring For The Tent
Seasoning the New Tent
Use a garden hose and thoroughly soak the tent with a light spray of water (do not spray
directly on the tent with a high pressure hose). After the tent dries, repeat the soaking process
three additional times.
If you note any water seepage or leaks after seasoning your tent let the tent dry, then spray
water repellant using the instructions provided on the product container. One or more appli-
cations of seam sealer may be necessary to stop water seepage in seams where thread enters
the fabric. Water repellant products and tent seam sealers are usually available where tent or
camping supplies are sold. Once performed, the new tent seasoning process does not need
to be repeated unless a section of your tent is replaced.
It is very important to “season” your new tent. If you do not follow this proce-
dure, you may experience some water seepage during the first few exposures
to rain.
