Lippert Electric Slideout System
Extending and retracting the slideout room is powered by the
Lippert Through Frame Electric Slideout System. It is a rack
and pinion guide system with a motor driven ball screw actuator.
The actuator is equipped with an automatic clutching system.
The Through Frame Electric Slideout System is a negative
ground system.
Manual operation
The Lippert Through Frame Electric Slideout System comes
with a manual override. Locate the 1” round Slideout Override
Access Hole in the skirt metal on the opposite side (of the RV)
from the room that you are trying to move.
• Disconnect your RV battery .
• Insert the crank handle extension.
• Turn
clockwise to retract the slideout room.
• Turn counter-clockwise to extend the slideout room.
If using the
manual override
feature :
Use EXTREME CAUTION to extend and/or retract
the room. It is possible to extend or retract the slideout
beyond the maximum OPEN or CLOSED positions.
This can result in damage to the slide components,
slide room structure, or trim components.
IMPORTANT : The actuator is manual ready .
• DO NOT disengage the motor.
• Just hook up and crank.
Maintenance
Although the system is designed to be almost maintenance free,
actuate the room once or twice a month to keep the seals and
internal moving parts lubricated. Check for any visible signs or
external damage before and after movement of the RV.
• For the best performance, the slideout system requires
the auxiliary battery be fully charged.
• Check for corrosion, and loose or damaged terminals/
connections at the battery, the control switch, and the
electronic actuator motor.
• Check that the motor leads under the RV chassis are in
good condition. These connections are subject to damage
from road debris.
