1. process until the camper will clear the truck body bed
by approximately 4".
2. Slowly back truck under camper making sure to clear
wheel wells and any structure or plumbing located
below the living area. This may take more than one
try.
3. Continue backing until the truck is within a foot of
loaded position. Stop and connect the 12-volt power
cord to the 12-volt receptacle in the truck bed.
4. Continue backing under the camper until the
bumpers mounted on the crossbar in the truck bed
lightly touch the front of the camper.
5. Slowly lower both rear jacks, then front jacks until the
camper is resting fully on the truck bed.
6. Raise the jacks and secure in place according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
7. Lift and swing front jacks inward (if equipped with
swing out brackets).
8. Secure the camper to the truck with turnbuckles. The
front turnbuckles must be spring or shock loaded,
while the rear should use solid turnbuckles. Install
both the front and rear turnbuckles per
manufacturer’s instructions.
9. Connect cabover struts (optional).
10. Install crawl through boot (optional).
REMOVING CAMPER FROM TRUCK
1. Position the truck/camper combination on firm level
ground. If needed, use 12" sq. 3/4" plywood support
pads under each jack to prevent sinking into the
ground or asphalt.
2. Disconnect and/or remove the following items:
Crawl through boot
Cabover struts
Front and rear turnbuckles
12-volt camper power cord
Rear view camera cord (if equippedl)
3. Using your remote control, operate all jacks together
until the camper clears the truck bed by 4". If
necessary to operate the jacks individually, starting
with the front jacks, extend the jacks no more than 4"
at a time, keeping the camper as level as possible at
all times. Repeat the process until the camper has
cleared the truck body bed by approximately 4".
4. Slowly drive the truck out from under the camper. Be
sure to clear the front overhang.
5. Lower the camper with the rear jacks first, and then
the front jacks no more than 4" at a time. Always
keep the front of the camper slightly higher than the
rear.
Always lower camper back down close to ground level.
Do not use tall sawhorses, cinderblocks etc. to support
the camper in the raised position. Do not enter or occupy
the camper in a raised position.
Your camper is designed to be used while standing on
the jacks in a lowered position without damage to the
camper.
When lowering camper, do not allow camper bumper
or generator exhaust pipes to touch the ground.
Damage may occur. Allow two inches of clearance to
the ground.
LEVELING/STABILIZING CAMPER
Prior to lowering the jacks, try and park on a flat level
spot whenever possible; certainly never on a steep
slope. If it is not possible to move to a more level
location, use wood blocks under the truck tires to
assist in leveling. Be sure that the block is larger than
the “footprint” of the tire. No part of the tire should ever
“hang over” the edge of the block. This includes
duallies. This can cause internal damage to the tire.
Being level is necessary for comfort, but it is also
required for correct operation of your refrigerator and
slideout rooms. The jacks should only be used to
stabilize the camper when attached to the truck.
Attempting to level your camper and truck using the
jacks can overload your jacks and cause damage to
them, your camper, and your tie-down system.
