Max weight on roof?

Got an 02 Springdale and there's a little leak on the dome above the tub. I picked up some sealant, but I'm just wondering if I should get up on the roof being over 300 lbs?

I wouldn’t. Can you reach while standing on a ladder? If not then I would use some pads to spread the weight. 1/2 sheets of 1/4” plywood would work.

Be careful when near the AC unit. The roof stringers can terminate along side of the ACs. Just reach if you can. If you need to be on top, put your crawl panel(s) lengthwise and not widthwise so that better roof contact is made. There is more strength along the roof edges along the cabin sides than in the middle.
