The RV is equipped with folding ramps to load equipment onto the front deck.
These ramps are secured to the front deck to create a railing during travel.
1. Unlock and remove one ramp from the front deck and place it on the edge
you will be using to load the front deck.
2. Secure the ramp for loading by attaching one end of the tie down to the unit
frame, and the other tie down end to the ramp. Repeat for the other ramp.

Loading the front deck
It is important for your safety, and for the proper handling of the camping trailer,
that the following guidelines are followed when loading the front deck.
(1) Load all cargo evenly from front to back and side to side on the cargo deck.
(2) Secure all cargo to prevent the load from shifting during travel.
(3) Weigh the trailer at the hitch, each axle and wheel.
(4) Observe all Gross Vehicle Weight (GVWR), Gross Axle (GAWR), and Tire
Ratings listed on the certification label located on the lower front of the left
sidewall.
(5) If the cargo on the deck exceeds the maximum allowable weight total or the
maximum allowable hitch weight listed on the deck capacity label, re-
distribute or remove the excess weight until the weight(s) comply with the
weight ratings.
(6) If the loaded trailer weight exceeds any rating, remove or re-distribute the
cargo load until the weight(s) comply with the rating(s).
WARNING
Do not exceed ramp capacities. Do not ride vehicle on ramps. Failure
to follow instructions may result in serious injury or property damage
.
WARNING
Exceeding any of the maximum weight and loading ratings or failing to
properly secure all cargo and/ or vehicles, as applicable, could cause loss of
control that may lead to an accident resulting in death or serious injury.
