Shoreline Power Supply

The power cord hookup is located on the side of the
trailer� The cord may be stored in the rear exterior
compartment� The power cord is plugged into the trailer
receptacle and the City Power Service�
NOTE
Use only power cords recommended by Airstream.
Many campgrounds provide less than 30 amp service,
and your hookup may blow their fuse or circuit breaker�
If this happens, reduce the load and replace the fuse or
reset the breaker�

Axle and Running Gear Assembly

Each rubber torsion axle is aligned during
manufacturing, and double-checked on a random
basis� Alignment after delivery is the customer's
responsibility�
Hitting chuck holes or rough railroad tracks while
traveling straight will only cause misalignment after
the tire has struck such objects many times� Of
course, a deep enough hole can affect the alignment
immediately�
The worse culprit is a curb because they are normally
struck at an angle� Rear axles are occasionally
damaged when people are attempting to park beside a
curb while backing up their trailer�
The trailer axle(s) is bent upward in the middle� This
bend is normal and is how the camber is obtained�
Also, toe-in is built into the axle by very slight bends in
the axle tube on each end�
Tire wear indicates misalignment� Check with your
dealer for the nearest location having the proper
equipment to correct the trailer's alignment�
Refer to Section 8 - Maintenance for camber and toe-in
specifications.
