Pre-Installation Checklist

● Clean the Camper: Ensure your truck camper is free of dirt, debris, and moisture. A clean camper will not only protect the finish but will also extend the life of your cover.

● Inspect for Sharp Edges: Check for any sharp or protruding areas, such as side mirrors, rain gutters, rivets, and awnings, which may damage the cover. Use the provided rain gutter protectors and ladder cap to pad these areas.

Step-by-Step Installation

1. Unpack the Cover - Lay the cover on a clean, flat surface, such as a lawn or driveway. Unfasten all buckles and straps.

2. Position the Cover - Lay the cover flat, with the roof section facing up. Locate the white tag marked "FRONT" to identify the front of the cover.

3. Fold and Roll - Fold the sides toward the center of the cover and roll it from back to front.

4. Place the Cover on the Camper - Lift the rolled cover onto the roof of your truck camper, starting from the front. Depending on the size of your camper, you may need assistance.

5. Unroll the Cover - Unroll the cover towards the back of the camper, allowing the sides to drape over.

6. Secure the Ladder Cap - As you descend, install the ladder cap to protect the cover from tearing. Pull the cover down over the sides of the camper.

7. Align and Adjust the Cover - Before securing the bottom straps, ensure the cover is centered properly over the camper. Straighten the cover for a snug fit.

8. Fasten the Straps - Secure the bottom and middle straps using the weighted buckle bag to toss the straps beneath the camper for easy fastening.

9. Final Adjustments - Tighten all straps and adjust the cover for a perfect fit. Your installation is now complete. Removal Procedure
To remove your Truck Camper Cover, simply reverse the installation process:

● Unfasten all straps.

● Roll the cover from front to back.

● Fold the cover neatly and place it in the provided storage bag.

Important: Ensure the cover is completely dry before storing it to prevent mildew.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How do I measure my Folding Popup Camper?

● Length: Measure from the front to the rear of the camper, including the spare tire and ladder. Exclude the hitch and tongue.

● Height: Measure from the highest point of the roofline down to the outside frame. Do not include ground clearance, roof accessories, vents, or A/C units. If your camper has an A/C unit and your height measurement is within 4 inches of the cover’s size range, it is recommended to size up to accommodate the air conditioner.

Cleaning Guidelines

● Hand Wash Only: Install the cover on the camper and use a hose to rinse away dirt and debris. For tougher spots, use a cloth with a multi-purpose cleaner.

● Rinse and Air-Dry: Rinse the cover thoroughly and allow it to air-dry or use a towel for faster drying.

Do Not:

● Use soap, bleach, or fabric softeners.

● Iron the cover.

● Store the cover while wet.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How do I measure my Truck Camper?

● Length: Measure from the furthest points of the camper, including the bumpers and ladder. If the nose is rounded, measure from the furthest point forward.

● Height: Measure from the highest point of the roofline down to the outside frame, excluding ground clearance, roof-mounted accessories, and A/C units.

How can I identify the front of the cover?

Look for the white tag labeled "FRONT" on the cover. If the tag is missing, it still marks the front of the cover.

What are the vertical zippers for?

The vertical zippers provide access to various parts of the camper while covered. Some covers also include a rear zipper for additional access.

How do I install the ladder cap?

Place the ladder cap over the ladder and secure it with Velcro straps to prevent damage to the cover.

How do I install the rain gutter protectors?

Attach the protectors over the rain gutters and fasten them with Velcro straps to prevent tearing the cover.

How do I use the weighted buckle bag?

Attach the buckle to the strap, fill the bag with rocks or sand, and toss it under the camper for easy fastening.
