SETTING UP AND USING YOUR RECREATIONAL VEHICLE
We recommend that you select a level or nearly level place for
camping. There are two reasons to be level. First, all components in
your coach, such as your water drainage system and especially your
refrigerator, are designed to operate in a level position. Second, it is
more comfortable to live on the level. Should a level site not be
available, use short 2 x 6 inch blocks of wood to raise the low side
wheels to a level position.
Before unhooking the trailer from the tow vehicle, be sure the jack
foot is in place on the tongue jack and block the trailer wheels to
keep the trailer from moving.
Before lowering the tongue jack, you may wish to place a wood
block or hard support under the foot of the jack, unless you are on a
cement slab. This helps to prevent the jack from sinking into the dirt.
Travel Trailer Hook Up
1. Release the weight distributing bars (if used).
2. Release the safety latch on the coupler.
3. Raise the coupler on the A-frame by turning the tongue jack until
the ball is free.
4. Disconnect the 7-way wire connector, safety chains, and the
breakaway cable.
5. Raise front jacks until tow vehicle will clear coach. Drive tow
vehicle away.
