I am new to caraving this year, been of 6 times now and first time i did it it was a night mare, what amazed me was the first time i set up eveything which took 4 hours how many experiecend caravaners just stood their and watched me struggle and then gave me advice afterwards this annoyed me as i would offer help to any one, you will alos find your own way of doing things, this is what i do

1 - Unhitch

2 - put a spirit level at the door and use jockey wheel to get it level.

3 - put legs down

4 - connect electrics and then press the switch so evrything is running of the mains.

5  -put the awning up

6- fill up the aqua roll, plug the pump in and open all the taps and get rid of the air bubbles.

7 - switch on the gas

8- put flooring down in the awning.

9- then organis the rest of you stuff and toilet

its not hard its common sense, when we first did it we went to a small caravan site for 2 nights and we siad its not an holidat its just to learn and we did that, and now i have it down to an hour.

when you read some posts on here some people go ove the top even when loading the caravan weighing everything and i have found the best thing to do is use common sense all the time
