Check and tighten the wheel lugs regularly (every 50 miles whennew until 200 miles are reached and then check the lugs every500 miles).7. Check the brakes in a safe area – not while traveling a busyhighway.8. Always block the trailer wheels solidly before unhitching.9. Before leaving a camp area with a trailer in tow, insure:a.

When cooking food or taking a shower, warm moist aircirculates throughout the coach attaching itself to coolersurfaces, forming beads and running down wall or window.C. Normal breathing will emit approximately 1/2 pint of moistureinto the air per person, per day. The more occupants the greaterquantity of condensation you may find.Solutions:1. When taking a shower, open bath roof vent approximately ½inch allowing moisture to escape.2. Use the power vent over range when cooking.3.
