Wow-I would also call mfg. Explain your situation and how you plan to use camper. Unfortuanently not all campers are designed to be used off loaded. I dont know if other modles of the Adventure are, or Id be back at dealer-no discussion on using camper off truck?

Pretty clear to me, my interpetation isnt the act of filling-its having tank and water weight unsupported from bottom. I dont see any wiggle room to assume its ok after its filled to off load full. This would be IMO question only the mfg can answere with any faith in answere. Would be nice if 'filling' was the issue as brholt noted. Id also ask about holding tanks-as lit. doesnt say anything.
I did peruse the sales lit on your camper- Awesome camper-hopefully you can resolve & use. Myself though off loading is nice and we do often-I might figure another means of getting to that fishing hole.
It's pretty clear to me too. It says "filled" which is a verb that describes the act of filling. It says nothing about after you're done filling. If they meant having water in it at all was the problem they would have simply said, "the camper floor must be supported any time the water tank is not empty."
