Sand, pebbles, objects on the highway, climate (salt air exposure) or ice inhibiting
chemicals used during the winter months will damage the paint, inviting rust and
other deterioration. Periodically inspect the exterior exposed areas, clean and
repaint the steel members occasionally and whenever you notice rust or paint
chipped away, to insure protection.

The E-Z lube feature on your axles provides the ability for the bearings to be
periodically lubricated without removing the hubs from the axle. This feature
consists of axle spindles that have been specially drilled and fitted with grease
zerks in their ends.
When grease is pumped into the zerk, it is channeled to the inner bearing and
then flows back to the outer bearing and eventually back out the grease cap hole.
If you have further questions, consult with your dealer.
NOTE: The convenient lubrication provisions of the E-Z lube must not replace
periodic inspection and maintenance of the bearings. Use a hand-operated grease
gun; improper use of a commercial grease gun may damage the seals.

beyond the bumper OR weigh over 100 lbs. (45kg) will place undo strain on the
bumper.
The 100 lb. bumper capacity includes the weight of the spare tire that may have
been attached at the factory.
NOTE: Some items may fall within the given weight range, however, can still
cause damage. Over time, weight added to the bumper will cause damage from
the motion created while traveling. In addition, extra weight behind the axle may
reduce the hitch weight (leading to adverse handling conditions from wind gusts
and/or passing traffic).
Do not add items to the RV rear bumper. Add-on items will eventually damage
your bumper. Damage caused by such aftermarket equipment installation or
improper loading voids the Towable Limited Warranty.

EALANTS
Failure to properly maintain or reseal your RV may result in serious water
damage to the roof and other parts of the RV. This damage is not covered by
the Towable Limited Warranty.
Sealants perform a very important function and should be inspected closely and
regularly maintained. We incorporate many different types of sealants, including
butyl/putty, black butyl-encapsulated foam, silicone (clear and colored), roof
sealant and foam.
environmental factors affect the pliability and adhesiveness of sealants.
