Slideout Diagram
This diagram provides an overview of the slideout systems. Your travel trailer may
contain some or all of the options listed. Slideout #3 is also the layout for a conventional
travel trailer bedroom slideout, but will be located where the fifth-wheel bedroom
slideout drawing is shown.

SLIDEOUT OVERRIDE
Instructions for all slideouts except Fifth-Wheel Bed-
room slideout.
1. If the travel trailer has an underbelly, locate and
remove the access panel for the slideout motor.
Refer to the drawing to locate the motor on
your particular slideout. (Fig. 3-11)
2. From the rear of the motor, rotate the brake
release lever on the back side of the motor
counter-clockwise 1/8 turn. (Fig. 3-10) This will
release the brake that locks the slideout in place.
3. The slideout is now free to move. If the travel
trailer has an underbelly, locate the access panel at the rear of the slideout rail.
Remove the access panel for the manual slideout shaft.
4. Use a 3/4” socket and rachet on the hex head located on the end of the drive shaft
and turn the shaft until the slideout is in the position you desire. When the slideout
is fully extended (or retracted), put pressure on the wrench to ensure a tight seal then
return the brake release lever to its normal downward position. This will ensure that
the slideout is locked into a sealed position.
5. Install the travel bars (on Eagle and Qwest models) and take the unit to a Jayco
dealer for service.

WARNING: When the slideout motor brake is released the slideout
will not lock into place, and therefore it will not be sealed from the
outdoors! When the slideout has been retracted, return the brake release lever
to its downward position in order to seal and lock the slideout. Install the
travel bars on the Eagle and Qwest models.
BEDROOM SLIDEOUT OVERRIDE
Fifth-Wheel Travel Trailer Only (Option or Standard based on unit floorplan)
1. Lift up the mattress and baseboard to gain access to the slideout motor. For units
which do not have storage space below the bed, remove the screw securing the
baseboard to the bed frame. Make sure the baseboard is propped up while working
on the slideout motor to avoid injury.
2. From the rear of the motor, rotate the brake release lever on the back side of the
motor counter-clockwise 1/8 turn. (Fig. 3-10) This will release the brake that locks
the slideout in place.
3. Use a 3/4” socket and rachet on the hex head located on the end of the drive shaft
and turn the shaft until the slideout is in the position you desire. When the slideout
is fully extended (or retracted), put pressure on the wrench handle to ensure a tight
seal then return the brake release lever to its normal downward position. This will
ensure that the slideout is locked into a sealed position.
4. For Eagle models, install the travel bars and take the unit to a Jayco dealer for
service.
