Maintenance
Upon delivery and after any professional service of the slide-out
system, be sure to have the technician check the following:
1. Slide-out stops are installed and adjusted properly.
2. System is mounted properly.
3. Cross shafts are mounted properly and clear all other
components.
4. Gear packs function properly.
5. Manual override is accessible.
6. Outside seals compress when slide-out is retracted.
7. Inside seals compress when slide-out is extended.
8. 9. Slide-out extends and retracts smoothly.
9. Both sides of slide-out are synchronized.
10. Any dirt or debris is cleaned from the interior or exterior
of the coach.
It is recommended that when operating in harsh environments
(road salt, ice build up, etc) the moving parts be kept clean. They
can be washed with mild soap and water. No grease or lubrication
is necessary and in some situations may be detrimental to the
environment and long term dependability of the system.
All adjustments to the mechanism, length of slide-out travel,
leveling of slide-room when extended, etc. must be conducted by a
certified professional. Failure to follow this requirement may void
the owner’s warranty.
Manual Override
NOTE: Always disconnect battery from system prior to manually
operating system. Failure to disconnect battery can cause
electricity to backfeed through the motor and cause serious
damage to the system as well as void the warranty.
The Lippert Through Frame Slide-out comes with a Manual
Override system. There are two methods for manually extending
and retracting the slide-out room. A crank handle extension or 3/4"
socket and ratchet can be used outside the chassis main rail at the
crank extension with pin. A socket and ratchet can be used inside
the main frame on the hex head crank extension.
Manual Override-Outside Frame
Locate the crank extension with pin outside of the chassis main rail.
This is where the crank handle fits on to allow the manual
extension/retraction of the room. Rotate the crank handle clockwise
to retract and counterclockwise to extend slide-out. It is important to
note that you DO NOT need to attempt to disengage the motor as
the actuator is “manual ready.” Just hook up and crank.
