Pod cover came in mail yesterday, it is a tan color, kind of glanced through the directions, says best installed by 2 people with ladders during no wind conditions, am going to wait to try it until I have winterized the unit.  has anyone got any make it easier tips, p.s. this is a factory Forest River cover.

Temps are dropping like a bomb and snow's on its way. Sure glad I got the Pod covered yesterday while the sun was out and the winds were down. Oh yeah    ...and that cover from Northern Tool fits our 177 like a glove !

  Our cover is a factory cover, I place the 6 ft. step ladder in the middle of the trailer on the side, make sure that the tag that says FRONT is facing the front and put the cover on top of the POD over the air  conditioner and start pulling it down on each side a little at a time to keep it equal all the way around and in less than 5 minutes it is in place with just one person.
  I had some old S hooks laying around that I tied to one end of a piece of rope, made a loop at the other end and use a bunge cord to hold the cover in place. I use 4 of these to hold it down.   Goose
