INTRODUCTION
WARNING– Before using this product you should read this manual and those manuals supplied by
component manufacturers applicable to this product.
This manual is supplied as a reference to required maintenance of your new Ezytrail offroad camper.
Failure to use and maintain the product in accordance with what is outlined in this manual may affect
your warranty.
Incorrect and/or insufficient maintenance may cause product failure resulting in property loss,
damage or injury or death. Maintenance intervals are critical for normal use, extreme use may require shorter or
additional maintenance intervals.
Manual content does not imply, express or other any warranty, the owner should read the limited warranty terms included
in this booklet.
Before using this product, you should be certain your tow vehicle is suitably rated and equipped to tow the product safely
and legally. The trailer and vehicle pairing must be within the safe “Maximum Towing Capacity”, “Ball Weight Capacity”
and “Gross Combination Mass” as stated by the vehicle manufacturer.
This camper is fitted with electric brakes and a “Breakaway System”. Requirements for breakaway systems can vary from
state to state. It is mandatory to supply a maintenance charge to the breakaway battery source while driving. You MUST
ensure this capability is fitted to your vehicle. The maintenance charge is supplied to the camper via the Anderson plug on
the drawbar.
WARNING: BALL LOADING (DOWNWARD LOAD ON TOW HITCH) MUST NOT EXCEED 300KG OR THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE
LOAD BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER OR TOW BAR RATING, WHICHEVER IS THE LOWEST. Exceeding these limits may
result in an accident causing serious injury or death and/or property damage.
It is important to load your camper correctly to distribute weight evenly and achieve a suitable ball weight load and
prevent loading in a manner that can cause a camper to sway and/or roll excessively left and right. The optimum ball
weight on a camper is between 9 and 11% of the total camper weight.

CANVAS CARE
SEASONING THE CANVAS
All campers must be set up prior to use and seasoned before your first outing. This gives you an opportunity to familiarise
yourself with your tent set-up and make sure you have all necessary components.
At this time the camper should be hosed with water to allow seam take up, in a process called seasoning your canvas.
You may find that in first wettings some leakage occurs through the seams and canvas. This is not a fault of the manufac-
turer, but a natural characteristic of the blend of canvas and synthetic fabrics. For this reason your canvas product must be
erected and thoroughly saturated and then allowed to dry prior to its first use. This process (seasoning) should be followed
a number of times – 3 times is the recommendation, allowing the fabric to shrink and help close up fibres and seams which
may cause leakage. Follow these 4 simple steps to begin seasoning the canvas
1. Set up your camper and annex with all doors and windows zipped up and closed
2. Using your garden hose apply a light spray of water over all the external canvas areas. Wet out the canvas without allow-
ing water to pool in any section then allow to dry thoroughly.
3. Repeat the process of wetting and allowing to dry another 2 times.
4. On the third wetting check for any leaks in the canvas particularly along the seams. If a seam is weeping water through,
allow the canvas to thoroughly dry then apply a wax stick along the area of the seam. This is done by lightly rubbing the wax
stick over the area. Once applied wet the canvas and check again. NOTE: It is not unusual for seams that aren’t able to be
seam sealed with tape to weep after seasoning. This is not a reflection of canvas or workmanship but simply a characteristic
of canvas tents. If the leak persists, contact your Ezytrail customer representative.
*Note - Seasoning process should be repeated periodically once tent material stretches during normal use.
PROTECTING SEAMS AND SCREENS
Seams: When erecting any canvas tent, it is vitally important that you don’t stress the canvas by overtightening when
adjusting the poles. The most common cause of damage to canvas is over tensioning. Adjusting the tent should give the
canvas good shape but the material should be relaxed. If you can see the stitching exposed in a seam, then the canvas is
under strain and the pole should be backed off.
Screens: Fly mesh screens are vulnerable to damage by poles rubbing against it. When packing up your camper it is impor-
tant to close windows with both inner and outer canvas zipped up thus protecting the mesh. Never leave door screens rolled
up when packing your camper as this can cause harsh creases and damage the screen. Mesh damage by owner misuse is not
a warrantable issue.
Ezytrail ensure your tent is made using the finest water repellent fabric. However, canvas products are not permanent
structures and in extreme conditions some water may penetrate. Seepage may occur in the seams through the needle holes
created in the sewing process. This is normal and can be corrected with the application of seam sealing compound. It is sug-
gested you purchase a wax stick to keep with your camping equipment in case of spot leakage.
STITCH HOLES
WICKING
Your canvas product will not leak if you touch the canvas. However, if you rub your finger back and forth continuously on the
canvas you may eventually draw water through (wicking). For this reason it is advisable not to have anything in direct con-
tact with your canvas. Similarly, if water is left to pool on your canvas, water may seep through the fabric causing leakage.
To avoid such occurances, set your tent appropriately for the weather conditions.

CANVAS CARE
ZIPS
All zippers on your canvas product will give you years of service. However, care must be taken when using your zips. Never
force a zipper - reduce tension so all zippers run smoothly without straining.
• Have zips closed when pegging out the tent.
• Have zips open slightly (to allow air into the tent) during erection.
• Before final tensioning of a tent close all zips.
• Always use two hands to operate zippers.
• Damaging your product from over tensioning may void your warranty.
Reducing the Risk of Jamming Fabric in the Zip:
• When using the zip, hold the pull-tab between your thumb and forefinger with your thumb facing you.
• As you are closing the zip, clear the way in front and under the zip slider using the back of your hand and cup the zip
slider underneath with your remaining 3 fingers while using your other hand to support the tent material.
• Use this action for opening or closing. Keep the fabric clear of the zip slider - zip and unzip slowly.
What to do if the Zipper Gets Caught:
• Wriggle the fabric bit by bit out of the slider. Do not try and pull all the fabric in one go.
• Do not force the slider or the fabric.
If the Slider Does Not Close the Zipper Properly:
• With use the jaws of a zip slider can open slightly over time. This can be exaggerated quickly if fabric is caught in the
• zipper. When this occurs, the slider does not compress and interlock the zipper coil teeth tightly enough and the zip may
burst open or fail to close.
• To fix this, simply undo the zip and with the slider at the end of the zip lightly crimp the jaws of the zip slider together
with a pair of pliers.
CLEANING
Do not use a washing machine or any detergents as this may destroy your proofing. Remove dust, etc. with a soft brush and
warm water. If it is necessary to use a mild detergent or canvas mildew remover, reproof the area with suitable
waterproofing compound.
Make sure the poles and zips are always clean and dry before storage. When the poles and zips have been used in damp,
dusty, sandy or salty conditions they must be cleaned/dried using a clean dry cloth. Please make sure you handle the poles
carefully, especially when unpacking and packing away into the carry bag.
CARING FOR YOUR POLES, POLE JOINERS AND ZIPS
CONDENSATION
When warm moist air meets cooler air, condensation will occur on solid surfaces including the inside of the canvas. The
camper trailer tent walls and roof form a barrier between the inside and outside conditions. The moisture inside the tent
condenses on the canvas fabric and water droplets are formed. Sometimes these water droplets build up to appear that the
fabric is leaking when in fact the cause is condensation. Condensation can be reduced if the camper trailer tent is well venti-
lated to reduce the build-up of warm moist air on the ceiling.
Condensation may also occur within the trailer and storage boxes when packed away. It is recommended to use moisture
absorbent products when your camper is not used.

CANVAS CARE
Mould is very difficult to clean once a tent has been affected. There are several ways you can prevent the occurrence of
mould on your canvas.
1. Never leave your camper packed away wet.
If you must leave a campsite with wet canvas be sure to open and dry out your tent thoroughly at the very first opportunity
when you get home. Mould can develop in just a couple of days so don’t take the risk.
2. Check for condensation
When packing up even a dry tent it is important to check under the mattress that there is no build-up of condensation over-
night. Body heat on a mattress can create enough temperature difference with the exterior for moisture to form under it. If
left unchecked this can cause mould when your camper is stored.
3. Remove any animal droppings
Bird/bat/insect droppings can damage your canvas due to the Ph level. Always clean off any animal dropping as soon as
possible.
4. Buy moisture absorbers
When storing your camper between camping trips it is recommended that you use moisture absorbent packs in your camper.
In soft floor campers these are best placed directly on top of the mattress and in canvas storage areas. In hard floor camp-
ers they should be placed on the floor in the dining area and in the canvas storage areas. Using these packs is critical in high
humidity weather and where your camper is not stored in an enclosed garage.

1. The first thing to do when you come to camp is to pick a nice piece of flat ground and unhitch your trailer.
When choosing a spot to set up your camper, start with a flat area with no overhanging trees. Birds and bats occupying
trees can defecate leaving droppings on your camper that can damage paint and canvas. Trees sap and branches can also
stain and damage the canvas. Ensure you are not camping in an area prone to flooding or with bad drainage. If camping off
grid ensure you have 5 metres of clear space around your camp site.
SETTING UP YOUR CAMPER
LOADING YOUR CAMPER
CHOOSING A SPOT TO SET UP
It is important to load your camper correctly and distribute weight evenly to achieve a suitable ball load balance. Optimising
ball weight between 9 and 11% will reduce sway. It is recommended to keep a ball weight scale with your camping accesso-
ries as load balance will change with useage.
WARNING: BALL LOADING (DOWNWARD LOAD ON TOW HITCH) MUST NOT EXCEED 300KG OR THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE
LOAD BY THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER OR TOW BAR RATING, WHICH EVER IS THE LOWEST.
Set the handbrake Lower the jockey wheel to take the
weight of the trailer
Disconnect your trailer plug & any
other elec. connections to the trailer

www.ezytrail.com.au

2. Unlatch the boat loader rack and with the help of a mate push it up and away from the trailer, it can lock either horizon-
tally or vertically depending what you have attached to it and how much space you have at camp.
Unlock the locking pin Release the over-centre latches Remove the locking pin on the other
side of the trailer
Push the rack up and away The rack can be locked horizontally
(Replace the bolts to lock in the rack)
Or it can be locked vertically
(Replace the bolts to lock in the rack)
Now remove your hitch from the ball
and drive away slowly
Lower all legs into position & Use your
winder tool to stabilise the trailer
Don’t forget the safety chains Place your wheel chocks in front of
your wheels
The stabiliser legs on your camper are not designed to support
the full weight of the trailer, they are there to stabilise it once it is
level. Using your stabilisers as a lifting mechanism will void your
warranty as will extending them with a “rattle gun” or “impact
wrench” or “impact driver”. Levelling front to back can be done
by raising and lowering the jockey wheel prior to adjusting the
stabiliser legs. Getting the trailer level from left to right should
be done with drive on stepped ramps. Once levelled the legs can
be lowered to keep the trailer stable. On soft ground you may
want to use timber sole boards under the stabiliser feet.

3. Next unwind both the forward and rear winches about 3.5-4m and attach to the anchor points
Raise and sercure your winches Attach hooks to the anchor points
4. Then unlatch all your catches and lift the lid by about 500mm, this is so when you start winching the lid
lifts rather than pulls straight against the hinges
Release the over-centre catches Lift the lid around 500mm or so
before winching
5. Using the front winch, wind until the trailer door goes just past 90 degrees, it will then start to fall before
the rear winch catches it. Once it is supported by the rear winch, use that to lower the lid down onto the
front of the trailer.
Use the front winch to get the lid
past 90 degrees
Then use the rear winch to safely
lower the lid into position
The winch should lock into position

Now it’s time to setup your tent, this stage can take as little as 10 minutes once you become well practiced, but be prepared
for your first time to take a little longer
1. Locate your door key, and use this to open the door of the trailer, this is always the first thing you do
before going into the trailer and the last thing you do before folding trailer back up when you pack up.
Make sure you do this before you close up your camper otherwise the gas struts get in the way and may
stop you from being able to close the door.
3. Grab two c-clip spreader bars, one long one, and one short one. Then climb inside your trailer
4. If your trailer is brand new check that all bows are correctly attached to the canvas you do this by using the
Velcro to hold them in place.
Use the key provided to unlock the door Use the Velcro to attach the roof bow to
the roof

2. Before jumping inside, work your way around the trailer and make sure all the press studs are connected so
the canvas holds in place.
Attach the longer c-clip spreader bar Take care to extend both sides of the
bow evenly
Pop in your corner stays at the front
of the trailer
5. Start by putting in two of your spreader bars between the living area bow and the centre bow then climb
up onto the bed
6. Raise the bed bow and extend out until side walls are firm but not tight
7. Then put in your corner stays and the other 2 spreader bars, extend the corner stays and lock in place
8. Work your way back extending all bows then spreader bars, but take care not to make it too tight it can
open up seams and cause water to get in canvas shrinks as it weathers so your trailer may appear a little
saggy when you first set it up but over time it will shrink and tighten up as the canvas becomes seasoned

This is the most basic setup for those quick overnight stays where you don’t need the extra undercover area that the annexe
provides. If you are planning a longer stay however you’ll want to set up the annexe.
The main tent is now set and ready for sleeping in. Note that there is still a little slackness in the canvas.

Lay out your canvas Two pairs of hands will make the job
much easier
Use a window stay to help the zip along
Lay out your poles Insert the hooked end of the pole
through the loops on each tent bow
Upright pole, followed by the ridge
pole, then the flat end spreader bar.
All Ezytrail annexes are free standing, but we suggest that you always use guy ropes, especially if there is a chance of wind.
7. Once all the perimeter uprights and spreader bars are up, it’s time to put in the c clip uprights and spreader bars
C-clip spreader bars stop water from
pooling in bad weather
Annexe: Your annexe will take approximately 20-30 minutes to setup completely
and is best done with at least 2 people.
1. The first step is to unfold your annexe canvas and lay it out on the ground, make sure its sitting the right
way and you have a nice pile of all your annexe walls and shower room off to one side
2. Then lower your centre bow to make it easier to attach the annexe, this can be done without doing this but
this is much easier
3. Here’s a little trick for you, instead of trying to climb up and zip the annexe on, once you get the zip
started use a window stay to help the zip along
4. Now lay out all the poles we need before starting, for the Stirling we need 3 x ridgepoles, 3 x flat end
spreader bars, 3 x c clip spreader bars and 2 x c clip uprights
5. Start off by inserting the hooked end of the ridge poles through the canvas holes putting the hook through
the loop inside the tent, this is easier to do with a friend helping
6. Once all your ridgepoles are in start at one end and put up the upright and add in the flat spreader poles,
and then last of all put the canvas over the top with the upright spigot through the eyelet and use the
elastic hook to secure. It’s best to have your mate or partner help with this part, it’s really a two-person job.

ANNEXE WALLS: Now if you want a bit more privacy from other campers or the weather looks like
turning and you want to batten down the hatches, you’ll want to attach your annexe walls. It’s a fairly simple process and
shouldn’t take you more than 15 minutes to do.
1. The first step is to lay out your annexe walls, make sure that the side with the PVC flap is going to be on the inside
of your trailer, this will make sure the d-ring is on the outside and you can peg your walls down
2. Once again with the help of a friend start the zippers and zip away. Make sure you don’t forget to push down the
velcro for a good seal
3. Peg out all your walls using the d-rings that are positioned around the perimeter
This job is much easier with the help of
a friend
Pegging out the walls will help keep
them quiet if it gets windy, as well as
adding strength to the structure
4. If you are putting the PVC floor in, this is the time to do it, once it is all pegged out, this simply velcros on and
thanks to that PVC flap there is no chance of water getting in
Lay out your walls to begin with
Getting a mate to put pressure on the
outside while you fasten the Velcro will
make the job much simpler

Your Stirling range has a leather lounge and table included as standard and not only is it a comfortable place to sit, it can
also convert into a bed for the kids. Let’s take a look at how to set it up.
1. Setting this up is pretty simple, the base pieces all have a velour finish on the bottom, these go around the edges.
2. The lounge backs are leather front and back, start with the two corner pieces and then the left and right pieces can
be identified by the pole cutouts
3. The remaining cushions go in between, easy!
4. The table simply winds up to the height you want it at thanks to a handy winder built into the middle of the table
Your Stirling range has a leather lounge and table included as standard and not only is it a comfortable place to sit, it can
also convert into a bed for the kids. Let’s take a look at how to set it up.
1. Start by lowering the table and placing it in its travel position, find the supporting plank and place it parallel to the
table making sure to place it on the supporting wood ledges on front of the seats.
2. Remove the back rests closest to the back of the camper either side and place on them top of the table/plank.
