Baja Marine JAY SERIES YEAR 2006 - Manual (Page 54)

OPENING YOUR FOLDING CAMPING TRAILER
Park your camping trailer on level ground and block the tires so the trailer will not roll
away. After parking the trailer, disconnect it from the tow vehicle. If your camping trailer is
not level, you may experience difficulty with its set up, particularly with the fit of the
entrance door.
1. Lower the stabilizer jacks. Place the jack crank onto the jack shaft. Turn it clockwise.
Lower the jacks until the frame begins to rise slightly. Equalize the stabilizer jacks
for best support. You may need to adjust the stabilizer jacks two or three times.
I
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THE STABILIZER JACKS TO LEVEL
THE CAMPING TRAILER. THEY ARE INTENDED TO
STABILIZE THE UNIT AND WILL NOT SUPPORT ITS WEIGHT.
.
NOTE: Road dirt and grime will sometimes make jacks difficult to operate. You
may need to clean them out before operating. To maintain the stabilizer jacks, keep
them clean. Lubricate them twice a year using only silicone lubricants. Oils will
attract dirt and cause additional problems.
Do not place excessive weight on these jacks as the are intended to stabilize, not
support the folding camping trailer. Make sure the folding camping trailer is level.
2. Unfasten each roof latch. (Fig. 7)
I
CAUTION: Never attempt to crank up the roof until
all corner latches are unlocked and free. (Fig. 7)
NEVER LIFT THE ROOF WITH CARGO IN
PLACE.
3. Turn the thumb latch and open the door at the crank
compartment.
4. Insert the crank into the square tube and turn it in a
clockwise direction. (Fig. 8)
5. Raise the roof until the tent is loosely extended.
.
NOTE: At this point, the roof needs to be high enough to
ensure that the tent will not be in the path of the bed slide
during the bed setup.
.
NOTE: The bed braces and bed bow braces are
stored under the bed mattress. (Fig. 9)
Caution: For slideout models, pull the slideout tent
outside of the unit BEFORE pulling the beds out. Make
sure that all tent material is clear from the bed slide.
6. Before pulling out the front bed, place the flat end of
the bed brace into the slot provided on the frame.
