Section 5. Lift system
Lift system overview
The GO lift system is designed to quickly allow you to raise and lower the GO from Travel
mode to Transport mode and to Camping mode and back down again, with the simple turning
of a handle. The lift system uses a winch-driven cable drive that raises and lowers
telescoping tubes out of the four vertical corner posts simultaneously.
Winch and winch handle
The heart of the lift system is the winch. The winch is located under the driver’s side of the
front storage box. Access to the winch is through the “mouse hole” opening at the bottom of
the storage box. The winch handle is stored in the front storage box lid. To raise the lift
system, remove the winch handle from the storage box lid, insert it into the receiver on the
winch and crank clockwise to raise, counter-clockwise to lower. When not in use, return
winch handle to storage box lid clips.
Main lift tube housing
The lift pushrods are housed in the main lift tube housing, located under the deck, in the
middle of the GO camping trailer. Care should be taken to ensure the system is properly
lubricated. See the lift system maintenance section for details.
Telescoping lift tubes
The telescoping lift tubes are located in the four corners of the frame. They rise out of the
vertical frame pillars simultaneously and raise and lower the rack and tent pod assembly. It is
important to be sure the GO is parked on a level surface prior to raising and lowering the lift
system. When raising the system up for Transport mode, simply raise the system high enough
for the outer bed panels to be rotated up into their vertical position. When raising the system
up to Camping mode, keep cranking the winch handle until you see the indicator mark.
