Re: walking on the roof
It's a question that gets asked regularly, and sadly the forum search tool is poor.
But if you're willing to scroll through lots and lots of irrelevant threads, a search for "walking on the roof" will find you quite a lot of relevant info - you may need to spend a while to find one directly related to the Devon, though.

Re: walking on the roof
Isn't the Devon a Nuevo on a different base vehicle, so any thread relating to Nuevo roof will help.
Here's one..

Re: walking on the roof
It’s the Marquis version of the Stanton on a Sprinter so very likely the same as the Nuevo, Paul.
Personally, I’d never attempt to stand on the roof of a coachbuilt.![happyno](/users/3014/30/14/83/smiles/4047431765.gif)

The on-line 2010 Devon Handbook on page 3-1/3-2 covers it:

The maximum load of 8 kg per square foot and not exceeding an overall load of 75 kg on the roof is nigh on impossible to achieve.
