Roll: Then proceed to
roll the cover forward,
keeping it as straight
as possible.
Store: After rolling
the tonneau cover,
attach it to the front
of the unit with the
two straps provided.
They hold the cover in
place while camping.
Attach Support Poles to Bottom Brackets
Once the tonneau cover is removed, you
will nd four (4)
aluminum support
poles with cotter pins,
secured in a black
tube under the coach.
Remove these poles,
placing the ends in
the support brackets.
We suggest you place them in the lower
brackets rst and put the cotter pins through
the holes.
Hint: Make sure
the cotter pin goes
through the bracket
completely. On most
models, support poles
are interchangeable,
and both ends are the
same, making them
very versatile. This is
not true on the 8.1 and rear deck models.
When all four poles are in place and the cotter
pins are completely through (bracket, pole,
bracket), you’re ready to open the unit.
Position one person on either side of a bunk
and lift it towards vertical. As the bunk comes
over, the mattress will typically come with it.
Be careful as you
lower the bunk past its
vertical position as the
weight of the bunk will
begin to pull it down
quickly. Do not let go
of the bunk before
the support poles are placed in the aluminum
support brackets on the underside of the bunk.
Place the cotter pins through the holes in the
aluminum support brackets. Once the rst
bunk end is secure, you’re ready to repeat the
process with the other bunk.
Hint: Balance the bunk on your shoulder when
attempting to insert the cotter pin through the
bracket and pole. Also, use just your thumb to
gently align the pole with the holes on the brackets.
After you do this a couple times, you will become a
“pro”. Once the bunk ends are secure, you’re ready
for the next step, which is putting the tent up.
Raising the Canvas Tent
Once the bunk bases
are set in place and
the support poles are
attached, look inside
the unit where you will
see a folded tent on
bimini poles. Around
the edges of the tent
some material is
overlapped. Pull this extra material over the
sidewall, outside the camper box. Next, grab
the bimini poles for that half of the camper
and pull them up a little, making sure they
are not stuck or bound up in the box.
E
NOTE
Sometimes during travel, the bimini poles
can settle further down in the camper box.
Before attempting to raise the tent you need
to be sure the bimini poles are free of the
box and able to come up with the tent.
