SLIDEOUTS
Option 1
Make sure you do not damage portions of the
shaft that will slide through the motor, trantorque,
bearing, and cog wheels.
IMPORTANT
!
On slideout motors equipped with the 5/8” reduction gear
nut, it can be turned to retract the slideout.
IF THE SLIDEOUT IS STUCK IN THE
EXTENDED POSITION
1. Remove the four mounting bolts, and move over the
slideout motor until it disengages from the square
shaft.
2. Manually push the room in or out, or use a wrench to
rotate the shaft. Make sure you do not damage the
shaft with the wrench.
WITH MANUAL LOCK ARMS
3. Lock the room with manual lock arms (if equipped).
4. Take the coach to an authorized service center for
diagnosis and repair.
WITH MECHANICAL LOCK ARMS
3. Slide the motor back over onto the square shaft, and
reinstall the four mounting bolts.
4. The motor and brake assembly must be installed
(or another way devised) to hold the slideout in the
retracted position prior to traveling.
5. Take the coach to an authorized service center for
diagnosis and repair.
This procedure can be performed on coaches with a
brake on the slideout motor.
IMPORTANT
!
Depending on the year, model, and floorplan of the
coach, the exact slideout motor(s) location may vary.
Generally, they may be accessed from under the
slideout in the compartment area. Some motors may
also be located in the wheel well area under a cover.

Manually Retracting a Dual Motor Electric Full Wall
or Kitchen Slideout with Square Shaft
This article provides manual retraction procedure options for a dual motor electric full wall or kitchen slideout with a
square shaft.
Due to the dual motor setup, manual retraction using a separate battery or 12V source is not recommended since
motors run at different speeds. This may increase the risk of binding the room and/or causing extensive damage to the
drive assembly.
If the slideout is stuck in the extended position, try
the following steps to manually retract the slideout by
removing the brakes from each motor and turning the
shaft. Only a few tools are necessary to complete this
procedure; however, it requires the gear box to be
operational and the person(s) retracting the room to keep
the slideout from binding. This can be done by alternating
moving each side in small increments or by turning each
side simultaneously with a person at or near each motor
or shaft assembly.
1. First, locate the strap that secures the rubber boot on
the outside of the motors.
2. Remove the strap, and pull off the rubber boot,
removing it from the motors.
3. Remove the four screws from under the rubber boot
on the brake.
4. Once the brake is removed, use a wrench to turn the
shaft to retract the slideout.
5. After the slideout is fully retracted, reinstall the brake.
