The electrical and propane systems will need to be checked over by an RV service technician. The lug nut torque requirements are 100ft lbs.
WARNING! Never use the levelling jacks to lift the trailer completely from the ground for any reason including servicing, repair work
or tire changes. To do so would cause the trailer to become unstable and unsafe. Always useful proper lifting equipment or have the
work completed at an approved service location.
The servicing schedule may be affected by your usage amount and operating conditions. Discuss your intended use and servicing timetable
with your dealership to find the optimum schedule for your OP2. It is always better to attend to or catch small problems early or before they
occur rather than allowing problems to become larger or impact other systems or areas of your trailer. Failure to service your trailer in a timely
manner may mean that issues may full outside of or void your warranty due to failure to complete proper maintenance (neglect).
The servicing requirements are:
• Check the wheel bearings every year - ensure these are checked by a qualified service technician.
• Check the lug nuts every 2000 miles - this includes the spare tires nuts.
• Check the tire pressure every 2000 miles - the tire sticker on the interior of the door will supply the appropriate pressure.
• Have the dual coil suspension serviced every year; a dealership will complete the following services:
• Check and ensure the Zerk fittings on the suspension are in good condition and that these are removed and the suspension well oiled.
• Utilize a grease gun kit and some Moly-Grease .
• Check that the coil suspension is well greased (Moly-Grease suitable for suspension coils will also be acceptable here).
• Grease the hitch with some compound similar to Reese Heavy Duty Hitch Lubricant .
• Winterize the water tanks (see water system care & maintenance section).
• Look for signs of chipped paint around the body work. We can supply a cover paint kit to dress this.
• Ensure you are on level ground
• Deploy your corner steadies
• *Important* DO NOT use your corner steadies to lift the trailer off the ground
• Use a jack on the suspension lift point to raise your trailer
• Change your wheel
Torque all wheel bolts to 100ft lbs. When tightening wheel nut lugs, please tighten bolts in a star-pattern
order as indicated in the diagram to the right.
