SETTING
UP
YOUR
R.V.
TRAILER
We
recommend that you select a level or nearly level place to be used
for
camping. There are
two
(2)
reasons
to
be
in
a
level position.
First, your coach
is
designed
to
operate in a level position, for both
water
drainage system and especially your refrigerator. Second, it
is
more comfortable to live on the level. Should a Ievel site not be
available, use short
2"
x
6"
blocks of wood to raise the low side
wheels.
Before unhooking
the
trailer from tow vehicle always mount dolly
wheel to tongue jack and block trailer wheels to
keep
trailer from
moving.
Unlatch your stabilizer bars if used from your hitch and also
release coupler catch.
Raise the tongue of trailer with crank until free from hitch ball.
Disconnect electrical cord, safety chains, and break-away switch
cable.
Move tow vehicle away as needed.
Now lower the tongue to
1"
lower
than
Ievel
Place stabilizer jacks
(2)
in
the rear
of
the trailer under
a
frame
member and not the floor. Raise the tongue to
1/2"
above
level
position and place stabilizer jacks
(2)
under front frame members.
Remember these jacks are to stabilize and eliminate sway in camper,
not
to
raise coach off the ground.
There should be nearly equal weight on tongue jack and stabilizer
jacks.
You are now ready to attach water connections, drain connections,
and electrical power cord.
Turn on the
L.P.-gas tanks and light any pilot lights
as
needed.
It
is
always recommended to keep a window or roof vent open stigZhly
to aid in proper ventilation and help eliminate condensation.
