Section 4: Vehicle Operation
The front bed is equipped with canvas straps to hold the bunk
mats in place while not in use. Unhook the canvas straps by
using the clips at the top edge.
1.
Unlock and release the exterior locks that hold the bed
board in place.
2.
The bed board is supported by cables attached to the
RV. Slowly lower the bed board (DO NOT drop the bed
board) into position. Maintain pressure on the bed board
until the cables are fully extended. Pull the tent canvas
out and over the edges of the bed board.
3.
From the interior, place the "claw" end of the bed bow
brace onto the curved window bow (Fig. A).Push the
bed bow brace outward and upward while pressing the
second button from the curved end of the bed bow brace.
Insert the end of the brace into the bracket mounted on
the shelf, just past the first button (Fig. B). Release the
button.
4.
Attach the hinge cover to the bed board by placing the
Velcro strip on the hinge cover onto the Velcro strip on
the bed board and pressing firmly.
5.
Push the bunk mats onto the bed board. Unfold the
hinged mat and slide on to the bed platform. Fold the
canvas straps under the front edge of the small bed mat.
Condensation can be prevalent if proper ven-
tilation is not used. It can exist whether or not
a heater is used. Leaving a small opening in
each bunk zipper to permit air to flow through
and allow the tent to "breathe". It will help
minimize the possibility (see Condensation).
Closing the beds
NOTE: The front bunk mat will be the easiest place to store the
side and rear bed bow braces. Starting with the front bed will enable
you to take the bed bow braces off the rear and side and immediately
store them. Caution should be taken to place the bed bow braces in
the mat with the curved part down to prevent the bed bow brace ends
from damaging the bunk mat.
Front Bed
1.
Remove the bunk mat from the front bed platform, set aside. Make sure all loose items
have been removed from the bunk mat and bed platform. Items left in these areas may
cause damage to the mats and tent.
2.
Loosen the hinge cover by lifting up on the Velcro side. Lay the cover back on the bed
shelf.
