Adjusting the height of the telescopic
fold-out post
NOTE
Material damage due to incorrect
height of the fold-out posts!
After adjusting the superstructure height
on the corner posts, the roof can bulge or
sag and damage the superstructure.
► After adjusting the superstructure
height on the corner posts, adjust the
height of the telescopic fold-out posts.
► The roof height adjustment may only
be plugged in if the front and rear in-
terior height are identical. Canopies
with different interior heights at the
front and rear (wedge canopies) are
special equipment.
INFO
For maximum loading height, open the
side curtain and unlock the centre posts.
When temporarily raising the lifting roof at
the adjustable corner posts, the telescopic
fold-out posts adapt themselves to the
height differences by extending their tele-
scoping parts. Using the plugging unit, the
superstructure height can be adjusted in
50-mm increments.
