General Information and Operation

Step
To operate the step, lift up on the front of the step and
pull straight out until step locks into place� Some units
will be equipped with a double step� After extending the
step, the second portion folds out� To store the step,
fold it back into position, lift the front slightly and push
the step back into its storage area�
WARNING
Never enter the trailer without lowering the steps.
Always check that the steps are down before
stepping out of the trailer. Once the steps are
lowered, press down on them to make sure they
are secure in their notches. Never travel with step
lowered or extended.

Main Door

The main door of the trailer is manufactured with a
built-in, keyed dead bolt and door lock� The door lock is
engaged from the inside by a lever and the dead bolt is
engaged by turning the knob�
A main door hold-back is mounted on the trailer's
exterior side skin� The hold back secures the door to
the side of the trailer� When opening the door, push it
gently into the spring-operated slide� To release the
door, slide the hold-back bolt back�
If the door handle becomes inoperable and the door
will not open from the inside, it can be opened by
manually lifting the door latch release tab� Fold back
the velcro adhered to the door frame to access the
tab� Lift the tab upward to release the latch and open
the door� Use the photo (top right, taken with the door
open) as a guide to locate the tab�

NOTICE
When towing, the door lock and dead bolt must
be secured. If it is not locked, the constant
vibration of travel may cause the door to open
resulting in possible damage.

bolt-type latch� It can be operated independently by
releasing the slide bolt and swinging the screen door
away from the main door�
NOTICE
Always reattach the screen door to the main
door prior to closing the main door; otherwise,
damage may occur.

Emergency Escape Windows

To remove the screen, pull out the screen cord by the
cord loop at the bottom portion of the window� Turn
the two red latches inward and lift the two red arms on
each side, in unison, to open the window and push it
