What you get
Included
Meet the Weekender, our largest tank at 8 Gallons. The Weekender offers a shower for
the whole family and guarantees everyone stays clean while out on the trail. The tank
offers multiple pressure options: 1) Self-pressurize the system off your home garden hose
using the provided regulator. 2) Use a bike pump or compressor and fill the tank to 40psi
(MAX). 3) Purchase our pump cap and pressurize the system any time by using the built in
hand pump.
The Weekender offers a modular mounting system that can span from 32” all the way
down to 8”. The modular mount can be moved up and down the system using the 16 5/16”
mounting inserts. The system is perfect for cross bars (see website for details), roof top
platforms, trailers or secure it to the bed of your pickup (drilling may be required). Our
modular mounts can be used with our Platform Rack Mount (2 required) to mount the
system on its side for optimal roof top space.

IF YOU ONLY READ ONE THING
Get your Weekender mounted first, THEN attach the on/off valve.
It’s easy to bump that valve as you’re lifting the tank up to its
mount spot, so make sure to do things in the right order.

MOUNTING
Platform Roof Rack Mount
1) Place 8 neoprene rubber bonded
sealing washers onto the tank (with the
black/rubber side against the tank).
2) Place the mount on top of the bonded
washers and insert 8 5/16” bolts. Be sure
to include 5/16” lock washers and 5/16”
washers on each bolt. Make sure bolts are
securely fastened.
3) Insert 4 carriage bolts into your
vehicle’s rack by sliding them forward or
backward. Make sure they align with the
slots in the mounts.
4) Set your tank on top of the platform
rack and align the bolts with the slots
located on each side of the tank. Insert 4
washers and then place the 4 lock nuts
and thread on tightly.

Your mounting bracket can mount perpendicular (shown) or parrallel to your Weekender.
Just align the bracket as you wish and follow these instructions.

1) DO NOT install the on/off valve until your tank is securely mounted to your vehicle.
2) Tighten the valve by grabbing the collar and twisting to the right. Do not use any
tools, this will damage the thread. Do not overtighten with major force.

hear a click.
3) Attach the nozzle by pushing in the male quick connect (located on the bottom of the
nozzle) to the quick connect at the end of the 16’ hose.

HOW TO
Pressurize your tank
1) Attach the provided regulator to your home hose and screw it on all the way.
2) To self-pressurize your tank attach the regulator to the end of the provided 16ft hose.
Turn the on/off valve on both the tank and the regulator to the on position. The tank will
start to fill. It will take approxiamtely 2.5minutes to fill up. You can also tell it’s full by
wrapping your hand around the provided hose and wait until you can feel the flow of
water stop. Once full make sure both valves are turned to the off position and disconnect
the 16ft coil hose from your home garden hose.
3) You can manually pressurize by attaching a bike pump or compressor to the Schrader
valve located below the fill cap. Do not exceed 40psi.
