SCREEN ROOM SETUP

1. The canopy must be setup through step #3 before attempting to attach the screen
room. (See Canopy Setup.)
2. Open, unfold and spread screen room under canopy area. Enclosure must be on the
outside of the twist poles. A grassy area or clean floor is suggested.
3. Each upper side panel has a pocket sewn into fabric. Slide a two-piece tension rafter
into pocket with the white crutch tip to be placed against side panel of the roof.
Insert crutch tip at outer edge, and push in toward unit.
4. Insert peg through the "eye" of the twist pole "B" and then through the hole at the
outer end of end divider bar "C". The white rubber crutch tip will rest against roof
metal or the canopy bag. Install both ends.
5. Attach the Velcro hook sewn to the inner side of canopy to the Velcro loop sewn to
the outer side of the screen room, full length.
6. Wrap lifter post covers around posts and attach with Velcro.
7. Ensure all snaps are secure, fastening skirt to frame of unit.
8. Attach Velcro from skirt to Velcro on screen room lower corners.
9. Adjust three twist poles "B" so bottom of screen room is just touching the ground.
10. Install the 7 stakes through the screen room loops to protect against wind damage.

CHAPTER 4
THE SYSTEMS

PLUMBING SYSTEM

Fresh Water

Available in your Jayco folding camping trailer are
several types of fresh water tanks and filling meth-
ods based on options purchased. Each type is
explained below along with its operation.
1. A five gallon portable water tank is located
inside the cabinet nearest the sink. A 3/8" non-
pressure hose is attached to the container.
2. A ten gallon (or larger) water tank may be permanently
installed in your camper. To fill the tank, open the lid as
shown. (Fig. 4-1) Insert or hold the water hose and fill to the
desired capacity. The tank has an overflow outlet, but care
must be taken to not overfill it.
CAUTION: Overfilling the tank can potentially pressurize it
and cause leakage.
3. Water may be received into the system through a direct
hookup, referred to as "city water connection," (Fig. 4-2) when attached to entry
supply and water hose.
4. Operation of hand pump:
Tank Water - place handle into vertical position, using short strokes. Allow 10-20
seconds to prime pump and fill the water lines before filling sink.
City Water - move handle down slowly to open "CW" valve. Hold in this position
for quick use. Press down completely to lock for continuous water flow.
WARNING: Handle should be in the TANK WATER position when
connecting city water to avoid city water spill.
Depress handle while traveling. Spout will swivel over 90° for your convenience. The
spout is NOT a handle.
5. On camping trailers with the deluxe plumbing package, or shower/toilet options,
there is an additional 12-volt DC demand pump to supply water needs. This device
requires 12-volt DC power from either a deep cycle battery, or a converter when
120-volt AC power is available. A 12-volt DC switch is located on a cabinet near the
pump to turn the power on or off. When 12-volt DC power energizes the pump, it
will self-prime and fill water lines and components. When pressure achieves ap-
proximately 40-45 pounds, the pump will shut off and restart when the pressure
drops to 21 pounds. Some cycling of the pump may occur, depending on the volume
of water used. A check valve is located inside the pump to prevent water from
flowing into the supply tank. It is suggested that you turn the 12-volt DC power off
at the switch when using direct water supply.
