G'day All,
We are heading off tomorrow morning for a couple of days down to the Glenelg River with our fairly new Jayco Hawk.
Tonight I wound the camper up to wack the bedding in and stock the fridge up.
It wound up no problems.
When I went to wind the roof down it didn't want to go down properly. It took a few goes winding it up and then down again.
The roof would start to go down and then catch or stick on something after about 5 winds of the handle. The cables were loosening but the roof was not droping.
Has anybody else had the same problem?
If so what was the solution?
Any advise greatly appreciated.
:cheers:
Glenn

Yep.... Level as.
I was thinking something maybe needs lubricating.
Might try a spraying the four sliding corner posts with some panthers pi$$.
