The correct hitch ball height is listed on the chart below for your camping
trailer.
It
is measured with the coach in level position, measuring from the
top of the ball to ground level.
Jayco Incorporated cannot be responsible
for
the suspension system of tow
vehicle, which could definitely be a factor of ball height after coach is corn-
pletely hooked
up.

LOADING
Loading camping gear in your Jayco recreational vehicle should be handled
with serious consideration.
ALL
cargo, supplied equipment that you load
should be distributed evenly with the heaviest items being stored in the lower
cabinets. Be sure that all heavy items are secured
to
prevent weight shifts
while traveling.
In overhead cabinet on slide bars there is
a
maximum of
75
pounds on both
combined bars. Place only lightweight items in overhead cabinets such as
paper plates, cups, etc.
Please remember the heaviest strain
on
the cabinet bars is when loaded and
in
the
center of cabinet while in transit.
Observe capacity rating to avoid problems.
