Install Flashing
You will receive a strip or strips of Flashing (depending on the length of your Slide Out Cover) that are to
be inserted into the fl ashing recess on the Mounting Rail. The Flashing comes in 10’ lengths. They are
overlapped by a minimum of 1”. #8 x 1/2” screws with #8 x 3/8” SS EPDM Washers are used to attach
Flashing to the Mounting Rail. Depending on the pitch of the Slide Out Cover you may not be able to use the
fl ashing, so just caulk.
Off Season Storage
The Dura-Fold Slide Out Cover can be folded down as a complete unit.
Important: Remove all wing nuts and fender washers and raise the Slide Out Cover away from the
Header Angle. The Header Angle may remain attached to the RV Slide Out permanently. Retract the
RV Slide Out into RV and lower Slide Out Cover. Replace the washers and wing nuts on the Slide Out
Cover bolts for storage.
Note: You will receive four (4) Lock Down Brackets with your order. Two (2) required for each side.
1. Locate a substantial framing member on the RV to attach the Lock Down Bracket. The Lock Down
Bracket that is attached to the Front Trim must line up with the Lock Down Bracket that is attached to the RV.
