Hi, bought a jayco outback camper trailer couple of weeks ago & now I think I've worked everything out except for 1 thing.. When erecting the annex there is a sail track on the side of the camper trailer,, do try & push the awning into it or do I slide it in & if so is it best from bottom up or slide down then zip the top (if you knw what I mean ). Seems pretty difficult which everyway I've looked at it ?

Cheers SS

Hi SS, you slide it in from the end which is slightly flared. I don't quite understand your second question. :-)

Hi ss--ss

I presume you are asking about the annexe walls? If you have your camper up, and annexe roof on (easiest to do this if its a slide in type before the camper is wound up. Watch out for your step, push it in) slide the annexe wall onto the sail track either way up or down. It doesnt matter, what is easiest for you. I find it easiest sliding up. Velcro around the roof lifters and then zip up the wall to the roof. You will find it so much easier if you have two people doing it. Best if you can to try this at home until you get it right. Really isnt rocket science, but just watch you dont have too much tension on any areas that may cause tears etc to stitching etc. Happy to answer any other ?? if you have any or expand if its possible, cheers....

Thanks PradOz , Yes this is sort of what I did so I was on the right track..However didn't think to put up the awning before winding up the camper.. Will give that a go next time...

Same with the bed-end fly's. It's eaiser to let them all out and then wind up the roof.

Athough one night I collapsed the canvas at the ends and stood on the bed to unzip the bed fly when it looked like rain!
