Page 12: Electrical System
Electrical System Batteries The Telegraph Camper trailer is fitted with 2 x 120 Ah AGM batteries. These batteries are designed to be maintained at voltages between 12.0 V and 14.4 V. Should the batteries become discharged below 12.0 V, they will begin to degrade. The longer they are left discharged or the more times they are discharged below this point, the less likely they will be to hold charge. -
Page 13: Mains Power
When using the inverter, especially with high wattage appliances there will be a temporary drop in the voltage of your batteries, this is due to the high current being drawn by the system. This will increase back to normal once the appliance has been switched off. When not in use, the inverter should be switched off using the button on the control panel. -
Page 14: Water System
Water system The Telegraph is fitted with 1 x 120 L and 1 x 50 L fresh water poly tanks with stainless steel guard. Both tanks have bungs and taps on the bottom for the tank for easy draining and rinsing. The water tanks are not interconnected, you can change between the tanks by rotating the handle in the rear compartment 180°. -
Page 15: Country Comfort Hot Water System
Country Comfort Hot Water System The Telegraph camper comes with the Country Comfort portable LPG hot water system as a standard inclusion.

Page 20: Braking Systems
Braking Systems Electric Brakes The Telegraph comes fitted with electric brakes which require a brake controller installed into the towing vehicle that can be controlled from the driver’s seat. There are many systems available which can either be permanently installed into the tow vehicle or Bluetooth units that are mounted to the trailer and have a remote to control from the driver’s position. -
Page 21: Handbrake
Handbrake The handbrake is operated mechanically by means of a cable. The cable attaches to the backing plate and when the handbrake is applied the cable creates a force on the primary and secondary brake shoe. This causes them to spread until they make contact with the brake drum surface. The cable adjuster needs to provide enough tension that the handbrake is 1/3 raised when the camper is unloaded. -
Page 22: Setting Up Campsite
Setting up campsite Picking a spot that is relatively level, gets sun during the day and is not under any large tree’s, especially Gum trees, is important. If you are free camping, do not set up too close to a river or in an area that is prone to flash flooding. -
Page 23: Gas System
Gas System The Telegraph is fitted with plumbed gas, with the gas bottle holders mounted inside the front stone guard. The gas hoses have the LCC27 connection and requires the matching gas bottle to be able to use the system. The regulator has a one-way valve on top to allow for easy switching of the gas bottles. The valve must be pointing in the direction of the gas bottle being used for the gas to flow through the system. -
Page 24: Camper & Canvas Care
Camper & Canvas Care Seasoning the canvas The camper trailer canvas is pre-seasoned; however, this is before the camper has been assembled and sewn together. This means that before you take the camper out for the first time, it will need to be seasoned to avoid any leaks. -

Page 27: Condensation / Mould
Condensation / mould Condensation is a normal part of living in Australia, and this is highlighted when camping. The temperature difference inside and outside a camper can be quite significant, and with the moisture in the Australian air and the smaller living area of a camper, condensation can build up overnight. While this can be quite disconcerting, it is totally normal. -
