300TQ rood

Can I walk on it to put a cover on the camper?

All I can say I was told by the Dealer NO! When Im up on the roof I use a moving blanket with a 4x4 sheet of plywood.

That said the roof is a arched trussed roof so it really depends on how thick the roofing plywood is. I have not found that out yet. If it's half inch or bigger I would say it would probably be OK!

KS, there are MANY, MANY discussions concerning walking on roofs in this forum, this is only ONE.

http://www.dutchmenowners.org/forums...vers-7145.html

The consensus is, it depends... Most of the folks say walk on it when you lay some plywood or something up on the roof to spread your weight around (if you don't weigh too much). One thing no one has mentioned is "make the wife do it" if she's light (not my wife), that way, you can blame her.

I suggest you look around the forum and take a look at some of the other threads concerning this topic. By the way, welcome to the forum!

Walking on Roof

I’ve walked on my 300TQ multiple times, cleaning and putting a cover on. No creaking, cracking, or leaks

Welcome to the forum -

As for the roof I can't answer I don't get up on mine I got a 12 foot stepladder at a pawn shop for 50 bucks and use it to get the things I need done.... (at least, so far)
