Helpful (?) Diagrams

Monday, my wife is taking the rig alone for the first time on a trip lasting a week. Well, not quite alone, as she will be with a friend and they will be pulling two horses. So far, since we have owned the RV we have only been out together....so I have prepared these two diagrams for her to reference. The clearance chart is mounted on the sunvisor for quick reference. The systems chart she has in the cockpit. I thought I'd include them here in case anyone wanted to use this idea as a starting point 🙂

Awesome! 🙂 Wish I had this when I first started. Couldn't figure out how to extend the awning, had to get the manual out. :B

Very nice! You might add the tire pressures to the RV drawing for reference.

I'll bet you're an engineer...I'm married to one and those pictures look just like something he'd come up with.

That's great!!! I'm going to print out and get plastic coated for our checklist.
(open awning pic) On mine, I going to add a foot note:
step 5(A) Double check clip at top near awning tube, make sure it is in.

(close awning pic) On mine, step 8 tighten black adj knobs.


On height, I have plastic label on back side of sun visor. Driver might be going to fast to take eyes off road to look at a piece of paper was my initial thought. Just flip visor and there it is staring at you. Came in handy several times, mostly gas stations.

Again Great job.

Thanks OB, I've never seen the grey water transfer pump. Good way to manage extra grey waste water.

Nice diagram for any newbee. Thanks for posting. This will help explain the difference in systems to DW. Now you need one showing the water and sewer system.
Once you get all of the systems in maybe they can make a sticky of it for the top of the beginning RVing forum.
