    TOWING The driver of the tow vehicle must ensure that their Driving License is valid for towing the OPUS® Camper. It is highly recommended, particularly if you are not experienced in towing that you adhere to any applicable laws for the state in which you are driving. Many guides are available from leading associations and should be studied before you embark.

  • Page 20: Air Tent Design

    AIR TENT DESIGN Your OP2 AIR tent is made of 9 connected AIR beams in the main tent (and 9 beams in the annex if you choose that addition). The tent is inflated by the compressor that is mounted in the cabinet to the right of the door. The hose from the AIR compressor is threaded up through the cabinetry to the main AIR tent inlet valve.
  • Page 21 Should you identify a leak in your air beam or valve, please use the following map and contact OPUS HQ for a replacement beam. For field repairs, you can use the patch kit included with your OP2. We also recommend keeping the isolation valves closed until the air beam is replaced to help prevent tent collapse.
  • Page 22 • LED Light: Position the flexible light to the desired position. Plug the power cord for this light into the small 12v socket on the exterior of the OP2. Ensure that the *Lights* switch is turned on so that the socket is receiving power. Be sure to disconnect the light from the outlet BEFORE sliding away your kitchen.

  • Page 23: About Your Fridge

    We have also compiled a few quick tips that are OPUS-specific: • Your Fridge can be run on either 120v or 12v however we have designed the OP2 so that only 12v is supplied to the fridge compartment to enable the most energy efficient usage.

  • Page 25 Danger! Always ensure that the gas cylinder retaining straps are fitted whenever a gas cylinder is installed in the front locker compartment, even when the opus® is stationary. Important! Please consult the opus team before completing any repair work on the gas system: the propane system installed includes a 2-stage regulator. The regulator must always be installed with the vent facing downwards.

    STEP 2: Turn the temperature all the way down to the left STEP 3: Wait for the propane heater & fan to cycle off STEP 4: When packing down the OPUS, turn the heater switch on the control panel off and turn the red key off and remove.
  • Page 27 The OP2 comes with a built-in shower tent with a connecting hot water shower. Using the Eccotemp and Seago water pump, the OP2 is able to pump both cold and hot water to the kitchen and shower. Following the below steps secure your shower tent to the main tent.

  • Page 28: Water System

    POTABLE WATER The OP2 is fitted with 30 gallons of water in two potable water tanks (1x 20gl tank in the back, 1x 12gl tank in the front), one mounted in front of the axle and one behind. Each tank has its own lockable fill point located on the driver-side and identified by a blue water faucet icon. Your water tanks are each connected to the 12v water pump which can be switched on via the main control panel.
  • Page 29 • Use the supplied blue water hose with male quick-connect fittings on each end. • Connect one side to the middle quick connect on the side of the OPUS and the other side to the water quick connect fitting on the kitchen, accessible when the kitchen is fully extended.

  • Page 30: Electrical System

    12V SAFE OPERATING PROCEDURES The OP2 has two 100ah deep cycle marine batteries installed as well as a fully automatic battery charge controller. You will need to charge your batteries for at least 24hrs prior to each trip using a 120v shore power connection to ensure that they are fully charged.
  • Page 31 12V Power - cont The OP2® has many 12v outlets that are a combination of standard 12v sockets, mini 12v sockets and USB sockets.

All switches have their own resettable breaker located above the switches.

    Install the Cross Filling Tube… by unscrewing the top of the black valve, pushing the gray tube on to the valve and then threading the top of the black valve over the tube and twisting it on. Thread the end of the Cross Filling Tube through the silver loop hole in the OPUS side wall.
  • Page 35 STEP 8 Ensure both quick-release valves are closed on the canopy legs and all 5 on your OPUS main tent then press the AIR compressor button on the control panel and wait for the canopy to inflate. STEP 9 Keep an eye out for obstructions and when the canopy is starting to form, feel free to help guide the air beams to assist an easy flow of air through them and form final canopy structure.

    Our recommendation is to then stand between the OPUS and the annex and start zipping at the door side, walking backwards between the OPUS and the annex as you close the zip.

  • Page 39: Care & Maintenance

    It is, of course unavoidable at times that you will have to pack down your OPUS® when the canvas is wet. It is very important that the OPUS® is opened up to dry off as soon as possible and should be done within 24 hours.
  • Page 40 If you are in the field and can locate the source of the leak, you may be able to use the patch kit provided to patch the leak as a short-term fix in the same way that you would patch a bicyle tire. When you return home, contact OPUS HQ or your dealership and use the AIR Beam map in this manual to order your replacement AIR beam.
  • Page 41 Disconnect the faulty beam from the AIR transfer hoses connecting it to the rest of the tent. Make sure the isolation valves are in the closed position on both sides of the AIR transfer hose. Unscrew the front part of the isolation valve until you can slide it along the grey hose.
  • Page 42 In order to ensure you get the most out of your OP2 and that warranty claims may be processed in a swift and timely manner, we ask that our customers adhere to the following guidelines: Regular and proper maintenance of your OP2, including but not limited to the steps outlined in this user manual.
  • Page 43 • It is strongly advised that you use a storage cover for your OP2 if it is to be stored in an uncovered location. The OPUS storage cover provided with your camper is engineered for the OP2 specficially to ensure all features are protected. The storage cover is advised for an extended period of storage to keep your camper in pristine condition.
  • Page 44 Check the lights and fittings and ensure they are functioning correctly. Check the brakes are in good working order The chassis/running gear and the gas installation of your OP2 camper should be checked on an annual basis by a qualified service center.
  • Page 45 The servicing schedule may be affected by your usage amount and operating conditions. Discuss your intended use and servicing timetable with your dealership to find the optimum schedule for your OP2. It is always better to attend to or catch small problems early or before they occur rather than allowing problems to become larger or impact other systems or areas of your trailer.
