What maintenance is needed by a pop-up?
The basic maintenance is keeping the interior and exterior clean as well as lubrication all moving parts. These moving parts include locks, hinges, lifter poles, pulleys, cables, bed slides, hitch/hitch ball, and many others. The wheel bearings should be serviced at least yearly. When towing, I am in the habit of feeling the wheel bearings each and every time I stop to see if they are hot. At the end of the camping season if you live in an area exposed to freezing temperatures you need to winterize your pop-up. Obviously, after the long cold winter you will need to open the pop up in the spring.
