• The frequency of your remote-control unit has been pre-set by the manufacturer. If interference problems
routinely occur, refer to the manufacturer's instructions in your Owner's Packet to change the frequency.
Before operating the remote control electric camper jacks, be sure to read and understand the operating
instructions that were provided with your camper pertaining to their safe operation.

ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT

The following equipment may be required or helpful to purchase in the interest of preserving the life of your
camper and to aid in its enjoyment:
CAMPER PACKER. Designed for use when the camper is in storage. Torklift is typically a good brand. More
information can be found here:
AIRBAGS. Consult your truck brand dealership for recommendations for your specific make and model. Air bags
will greatly improve vehicle handling and safety. They raise a loaded truck to normal unloaded ride
height, providing a more balanced and comfortable ride.
HEAVY DUTY SHOCKS. Consult your truck brand dealership for recommendations for your specific make and
model. Use of heavy-duty shocks may help reduce wear and tear on your truck's frame.
HITCH EXTENDER/TOWING SYSTEM. Your dealer can assist you in selecting the correct one for your vehicle.
Only a qualified technician should install the system. Never attach a hitch ball or towing bar to your
camper bumper.

WEIGHT DEFINITIONS

It is very important to stay within the weight ratings of your truck. Learning these definitions will help you safely
manage your vehicle's weight and balance. Vehicle weight numbers typically fall into these two categories:
• Ratings are maximum limits that under no circumstance should be exceeded. These limits are established by
nuCamp and our part manufacturers in the design of the trailer.
• Weight and Load are generally interchangeable terms. Weight is measured by putting a vehicle, trailer,
cargo, or other components on a scale. Vehicles and cargo have weight or mass, which create loads on tires,
axles, and hitches.
Common Definitions:
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating): The maximum weight each axle is designed for and rated to carry.
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating): The maximum operating weight of a vehicle as specified by the manufacturer
including the vehicle's chassis, body, fuel, accessories, and any cargo.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight): The total actual weight of your vehicle plus cargo, as measured on a scale.
CURB WEIGHT: Curb weight is the total mass or weight of a vehicle with all needed fuels such as oils, lubricants,
coolants and a full tank of fuel.
CCC (Cargo Carrying Capacity, also known as Payload Capacity): The maximum weight that persons plus cargo
should never exceed. Payload is derived by subtracting a vehicle's Curb Weight from GVWR.
