The ultimate home away from home, OZtrail
Camper Trailer Tents fit straight onto your own
trailer and sets up in no time at all. At your
favourite beach or in the middle of the outback,
the Camper Trailer Tent delivers comfort
and style. The following is the list of OZtrail
Camper Trailer Tent features. Please note,
not all features are available on all models.
Please consult your local OZtrail Dealer or
www.oztrail.com.au for latest specification
details.
SatProof™ 600+ Canvas Walls are a heavy
weight 340gsm blended Ripstop cotton
canvas. The anti-mildew water proofing agent
is saturated throughout the canvas before
manufacture so even after wear and tear it
will still provide a waterproof barrier. SatProof
600+ Canvas ™ offers a minimum of 600 mm
hydrostatic water head creating a waterproof
canvas that still minimises condensation
build up. The structure of cotton allows water
vapour molecules to pass through and at the
same time provide a barrier to water droplets.
Silver coated SatProof 800+
Canvas :trademark: Roofs are a 340gsm
blended cotton canvas. In a similar process to
SatProof 600+ Canvas :trademark: this fabric is
treated further to provide 800mm hydrostatic
water head and maintains the same level
of breathability. After weaving the fabric is
rolled under pressure to accept the silver
coating that blocks out more than 98% of UV
radiation and heat. The technology used in
this protective coating has been developed to
provide a level of finish never seen before in a
canvas product.
Puncture resistant PVC vinyl flooring is
standard on Camper 6, 7 and Outer Ridge
models. Both Ridgeline models include the
added feature of an invisible bucket floor to
raise floor-wall junction above the ground.

Thank you for purchasing a quality OZtrail
Camper Trailer Tent.
Please keep this OWNER’S MANUAL in a
safe dry place as it contains important and
helpful information.
This booklet contains instructions to help
you mount the Camper Trailer Tent onto
a trailer as well as set up and fold away
instructions and many helpful hints to
ensure you get the best from the Camper
Trailer Tent.
The Camper Trailer Tent is easily mounted
on a trailer by the average handyman
with the help of 3 friends for lifting and
positioning onto the trailer. Many trailer
builders will mount the Camper Trailer Tent
as part of the service when buying a trailer.
In this booklet you will find a number
of sections that relate to the Camper
Trailer Tent use. These sections have details
relating to parts lists, maintenance hints
and information relating to the use of the
Camper Trailer Tent. In particular OZtrail
recommends that you read the sections
relating to SAFETY PROCEDURES and
Warranty conditions.
It is important that before you begin to
assemble the Camper Trailer Tent you
unpack the fittings supplied and familiarise
yourself with the location and application of
each part.
Once the Camper Trailer Tent has been
mounted on a trailer we recommend that
you set it up to familiarise yourself with the
product and to make any adjustments that
may be necessary. This will also help to make
you comfortable with pitching and folding of
the Camper Trailer Tent when you get to the
camp site.
During this process it is also recommended
that the canvas on the Camper Trailer Tent
be“seasoned”, to do this, please see the
separate section on seasoning your canvas
under the contents list.

Step 4 Preparing to attach
the timber base board to the
trailer
Step 5 Attaching the hinges
Open out the Camper Trailer Tent to allow you
access to the top-side of the baseboard. Unzip
the doors to prevent suction when raising the
Camper Trailer Tent and remove the mattress to
prevent any damage that might occur during
fitting. Have your friends hold both sides of the
Camper Trailer Tent down to reduce the chance of
it moving or tipping during the opening process.
For Camper Trailer Tent models Outer Ridge
Quest, Outer Ridge Venturer, Ridgeline Latitude
and Ridgeline Zenith or models Camper 6 and
Camper 7 where optional gas tilt attachment kit
has been purchased proceed to Step 5.
For Camper Trailer Tent models Camper 6
and Camper 7 without the optional gas tilt
attachment kit, included are 6 x bolts, 6 x washers
and 6 x nuts. Drill a total of 6 holes in the timber
base board and through the top rim of the
trailer. The 6 holes are made up of 2 holes (1 hole
approximately 20-30cm from the front and 1 hole
approximately 20-30cm from the rear) along each
side and 2 holes evenly spaced across the front, as
indicated in Figure12. Position the 2 rope hooks
on the rear tailgate, locate the position for the
rope hooks that will allow adequate tension of
the shock cord rope from the vinyl dust cover, as
indicated in Figure 13.
Attach the hinges and backing plate to the
trailer, these should be approximately 20-30cms
from the front and 20-30cm from the rear of
the trailer on the left hand side while looking
forward towards the tow hitch. Holes will have to
be drilled into the trailer wall and the ply timber
base board. Use fasteners and backing plate as
your template for the hole position for the hinge
brackets on the trailer. Use the actual hinge as the
template for the hole position in the base-board,
as indicated in Figure 14.
HELPFUL HINT
As part of a regular maintenance schedule,
check all nuts and bolts that connect the
CamperTrailer Tent to the trailer are firmly
secure and remain tight.
