Moving the Rig
|
|
|
 |
|
Close all windows and overhead vents
|
|
|
 |
|
Bring in the slide after checking for obstructions
|
|
|
 |
|
make sure small table is swung out of the way
|
|
|
 |
|
look for things on the floor that might get jammed
|
|
|
 |
|
bring up the stabilizers
|
|
|
 |
|
turn off the water heater
|
|
|
 |
|
clear all horizontal surfaces
|
|
|
 |
|
latch shower and bathroom doors
|
|
|
 |
|
insure all drawers and cabinets are fully closed
|
|
|
 |
|
remove external water hose, if used
|
|
|
 |
|
Turn off campground breakers and remove power cable and stow
|
|
|
 |
|
Start the rig and insure the backup camera is on
|
|
|
 |
|
if leveler blocks were used, slowly drive off them and stow
|
|
|
 |
|
check overhead clearance for your exit path
|
|
|
 |
|
Driving
|
|
|
 |
|
The rig is tall and wide-check for overhanging trees and obstructions as you drive
|
|
|
 |
|
Remember when turning tight, the back end will “swing out”
|
|
|
 |
|
you MUST use lower side mirrors when changing lanes- HUGE blind spots
|
|
|
 |
|
The rig is long-insure plenty of room when changing lanes
|
|
|
 |
|
backup slowly and check for overhead obstructions behind you!
|
|
|
 |
|
do not exceed 65 MPH
|
|
|
 |
|
leave plenty of room in front for braking.
|

Making camp
|
|
|
 |
|
You made it. Congratulations!
|
|
|
 |
|
Hookups are on the left- rear. park accordingly
|
|
|
 |
|
Use a helper outside to direct you if possible
|
|
|
 |
|
they should stand where you can see them in the mirror
|
|
|
 |
|
use agreed upon hand signals- THEY are calling the shots now
|
|
|
 |
|
If you loose sight of them, STOP until they are back in view
|
|
|
 |
|
leveling on uneven or sloped ground it an art form. good luck!
|
|
|
 |
|
put the round level (in the charging cubby) on the floor
|
|
|
 |
|
Ideally the bubble will be inside the smallest ring if you are level
|
|
|
 |
|
“Leggos” can be added under wheels in the opposite direction the bubble is pointing
|
|
|
 |
|
plan the whole thing before starting- three legos = 1 ring on the bubble level
|
|
|
 |
|
have a helper tell you when you are on top of the legos
|
|
|
 |
|
roll up the cab windows and put down the stabilizers
|
|
|
 |
|
turn off the motor
|

|
|
