Pack Down Your  2025 Model OP15 Camper

Time to head home? Follow these steps to pack down your OP15 2025 safely and efficiently. Proper pack-down protects your camper and keeps it ready for your next adventure!

Pre-Pack-Down Checks

• Stow all personal items securely inside the OP15 2025.
• Close all windows, vents, and the Fiamma awning to prevent damage or water ingress.
• Secure the beds, table, and any loose cushions to avoid shifting during travel.

Step-by-Step Pack-Down

Step 1: Pack Down the Interior

• Ensure everyone has exited the camper, then fold up the main bed mattress (72” x 70”) and close the entry door securely.
• Tip: Organize items neatly to prevent damage on the road.

Step 2: Lower the Roof

• Pull out the securing pins for the front and rear roof lift mechanisms to release the pop-top roof.
• Lower the interior roof lift bars (rear first, then front) to bring the roof down gently. Slide the securing pins back in to lock the mechanism.
• Caution: Support the roof with a helper to avoid strain on the aluminum frame.

Step 3: Fold Away the Bed Sections

• Release the latch clamps and pins on the rear end wall panel, then lower it using the handle.
• Carefully lift the rear bed panel to the vertical position and secure the two rear bed end latches.
• Repeat for the front bed end, releasing the D-pin and latch, and folding it up with gas strut assistance.
• Warning: Have a helper hold each panel to prevent sudden drops, especially on uneven ground.

Step 4: Fold Side Panels

• Fold the right side panel inward to 0 degrees by rotating the spring bolt to secure it, then repeat for the left side panel.

Step 5: Lower Rear Panel

• Lower the back panel from the roof position and secure the rear panel locks with the push-buttons, ensuring a tight seal.

Step 6: Raise Stabilizer Legs

• Use the winder or a 3/4" hex drill attachment to wind up each of the four corner steadies until fully retracted. Push the release lever inward to lock them at 0 degrees.
• Tip: Ensure legs are clear of the ground to avoid dragging during towing.

Step 7: Raise Jockey Wheel and Hitch

• Wind up the jockey wheel to raise the tongue, then reconnect the DO35 Cruisemaster hitch to your tow vehicle if previously unhitched.
• Attach the safety chains and breakaway cable, then disengage the e-brake once hitched.

Quick Pack-Down Checklist
