Trouble shooting the flush floor slideout
Refer to the general troubleshooting check list before proceeding.
Electric Operation
Extending/retracting the room
1. Level the unit.
2. Main Power switch at stepwell (locations may vary) must be ON.
3. Verify the battery is fully charged and hooked up to the
electrical system.
4. Remove the transit bars (if so equipped) if extending the
slideout, and install them if retracting the room for travel.
5. Press and hold the IN/OUT switch in the OUT position
until the room is fully extended and stops moving. Hold
the switch in the IN position to retract the room.
6. Release the switch, which will lock the room into position.
If the slideout switch is held after the room is fully extended or retracted, the control
will sense that the room has stopped and will shut the motor off after a few seconds.
Manual Operation for the flush floor slideout
Locate the crank extension under the inside of the frame (
Fig. 1 and 2
). Attach a standard
fifth wheel landing gear crank handle, a ¾” socket and ratchet, or drill and nut driver.
Rotate the extension clockwise to retract the slideout and counterclockwise to extend it.
DO NOT
attempt to disengage the motor as the actuator is “manual ready”.
NOTE:
Install transit bars (if so equipped) on the slideout room during
storage and transportation.
Always disconnect battery from system prior to manually operating
system. Failure to disconnect battery can cause electricity to back feed
through the motor and cause serious damage to the system as well as void
the warranty
Use EXTREME CAUTION when extending/retracting the room us-
ing the manual override feature
. The gears can be stripped out if the
room is manually retracted/extended to its fullest extent and the operator
continues to rotate manual override. Damage can also occur to the slide
components, slide room structure or trim components. Damages due to
misuse of the manual override feature will void any and all claims to the
Limited Warranty.
NOTE:
For long-term storage it is recommend the room be closed
(retracted).
