Hi All
Just wondering if someone can tell me if we could raise one end at a time or does it have to be - 1, 2, 3 lift at the same time. There is one scissor at each end with 2 scissors on each side. Not an easy task for an older female with a not so strong wrist.
Many thanks
Lyn

I don't know about your van particularly but I do my Supreme by myself one end at a time. Hope this helps.

We had a viscount Grand Tourer for years and always raised one end at a time without any problems.
We do the same with the current van and no probs.

G`day Lyn,
One end at a time.
Which end first ? ....... Try it each way, ours is easier if we lift the front first.
If you have a roll out awning the little lever on the end will need to point down if you are lifting the roof up, and point up when letting it down.
It is also necessary to have a window or the door open for the air to get in/out while raising or lowering the top.
Hope this helps,
Scrubby

Thanks for your replies folks. A relief for me. I gather we can do the same for lowering the top.
Wishing everyone safe & happy holidays.
Cheers
