Any ventilating window may permit water
inside, especially during heavy rainstorms.
Condensation will also cause water to
accumulate on windows and in the tracks.
The window “glass” can normally be cleaned
with a sponge and water. Use glass cleaner
to remove wax, oil, grease, dead insects, etc.
After washing the glass, wipe it dry with a
clean, soft cloth.

Locks on entrance and baggage doors need
biannual lubrication using a light coat of
silicone spray. Do not permit the spray to
come into contact with the tent. Conditions
such as rain, salt, dust and pollution may
increase the maintenance needs.

Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway,
climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting
chemicals used during the winter months will
damage the paint, inviting rust and other
deterioration. Periodically inspect the exterior
exposed areas, clean and repaint the steel
members occasionally and whenever you
notice rust or paint chipped away, to insure
protection.

Lifter Posts
The telescoping posts should be lubricated
semi-annually. Use a light coat of silicone
spray to insure smooth, trouble-free
operation. Do not permit the spray to come
into contact with the tent. Do not use grease
or oil on the posts. Grease and oil will attract
dirt, causing the tent to become dirty.
Winch
The winch should be lubricated one time each
year, preferably at the beginning of the
camping season. Access the winch through
the lifter system crank door.

Utilizing an oil can, place a small quantity of
light oil on the pressure washer and tubing
spacer before operating the lifter system. As
you raise/lower the roof, the oil will be
distributed to lubricate these components.
If rust occurs, the frame should be cleaned
and painted. Rust or frame damage resulting
from lack of routine maintenance is not
warrantable.

The E-Z lube feature on your axles provides
the ability for the bearings to be periodically
lubricated without removing the hubs from the
axle. This feature consists of axle spindles
that have been specially drilled and fitted with
grease zerks in their ends. When grease is
pumped into the zerk, it is channeled to the
inner bearing and then flows back to the outer
bearing and eventually back out the grease
cap hole. If you have further questions,
consult with your dealer.
The convenient lubrication provisions of the
E-Z lube must not replace periodic inspection
and maintenance of the bearings. Use a
hand-operated grease gun; improper use of a
commercial grease gun may damage the
seals.
