Exterior Care
Rear Bumper
The rear bumper of your RV is not designed to carry cargo.
• Items that extend beyond the bumper will place undo
strain on the bumper.
• Over time, weight added to the bumper will cause
damage from the motion created while traveling.
• Extra weight behind the axle may reduce the hitch weight
(leading to adverse handling conditions from wind gusts
and/or passing trac).
Trailer Frame
Rocks, sand, road debris, climate (like salt air exposure) and
especially the ice inhibiting chemicals used during the winter
months will damage your frame's painted exterior, inviting rust
and other deterioration.
• Regularly inspect all exposed areas of the frame.
• To maintain protection, clean and repaint any
chipped areas or rust spots.
Windows
Any ventilating window may permit water inside, especially
during heavy rainstorms. Condensation will also cause water
to accumulate on windows and in the tracks. Normally the
window glass can 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.
DO NOT add items to the
RV rear bumper. Add-on
items will eventually
damage your bumper.

aftermarket equipment
