I'm not sure if this is a model specific problem or just a bad ladder design issue. After finally getting my 3010 back from the dealer, I went onto the roof to clean the 30+ days of dirt off when I noticed the left ladder rung was bottoming out on the roof. Upon closer examination, I noticed the rubber roof material was torn where the left rung met the roof.
Maybe some of the 3010 guys can chime in on this if they've had the same problem or if Mike Aplin from HL can let me know if this is an isolated problem or a trend with the ladders on the Cyclone or am I just the lucky one? If I'm just lucky, what do I need to do before the rainy season starts and this little rip in the roof creates a bigger problem.
I've attached some photos to show my dilemma. You'll be able to see what the ladder looks like with and without weight on the ladder. I weigh about 170 pounds, so I believe I'm not putting the ladder to any stress tests. I've only used the ladder about 5 times since I've had the trailer, so, I'm kind of at a loss for what avenue to take.
Thanks,
Scott
