2019 Rockwood A214hw manual

I just bought a used 2019 Rockwood A214hw hard side and the only manuals included were a few of the components like fridge, heat pump.
I can't find any online that mention how to install battery and care for electric roof lift, and many more things.
I will travel alone and boondock, so online interactive manuals won't help, plus I can't print out what trouble I'll run into in advance.
Where can I buy a hardcopy manual?
Did I make a huge mistake?

No hard copy manuals available. Most manuals are generic and are found on line. Will pertain to most campers. May not cover some of the things your looking for. Best bet is go to the sub forum for Fifth wheels/travel trailers and post your question under the Rockwood campers. Later RJD

Actually, OP has an A-frame, not a TT.

Care for the electric lift is either spend money on replacements. Under very good conditions (stored inside, protected from rain and dust), the electric lift is good for 2-3 years. Stored outside, and used in the rain or dust storms, electric lift life is less than a year. Water, dirt gets past the shaft seal and gums up the gear box and or motor. You can take apart clean and lube every 12 months, replace on failure, or change to gas struts. Lots of threads in the A-frame forum about that.

Battery install is generic for campers and travel trailers.

You will find a lot more info in the A-frame forum.

Moved thread from the Boondocking sub-forum to the A-frame sub-forum since the OP owns an A-frame trailer.

OP, a generic owners manual is the RV Industry standard, a generic owners manual with no model-specific nor brand-specific information. Just basic RV systems information.
