SECTION 10
SLIDEOUT/LEVELING
10-6
•
Retract Bolts are located on the outboard
mounting plates of the slideout room as
shown. These plates are located at both ends
of the room inside the StoreMore
TM
compartment doors.
•
Loosen the Lock Screws near the Retract
Bolts as shown before trying to turn the bolts.
•
After loosening the lock screws, fit the ratchet
wrench onto the bolt head and begin cranking
clockwise slowly a few turns, then alternate to
the other side for a few turns.
Have an assistant use an additional wrench,
then crank both sides evenly together to speed
this process.
•
Crank the wrench(es) clockwise slowly, until
the room is fully retracted.
Allow about 10 minutes to crank room in
fully.
NOTE:Attempting to crank the room in too
quickly will raise pressure in the
hydraulic fluid lines and make cranking
more difficult.
Step 3 - Secure Travel Locks and Close
Hydraulic Line Valves
•
Activate the slideout room Travel Locks.
•
Close the slideout solenoid valves completely.
NOTE: Close the valves snugly, but do not
overtighten. Overtightening may cause
internal damage to the valves.
•
See your dealer for service of the room
extension system before using again.
Bedroom Slideout Rooms -
Emergency Push-In Procedure
In the unlikely event that your bedroom
slideout fails to retract using the power switch,
check for obvious causes first, such as low charge
on the house batteries, or a burned out fuse on the
hydraulic system control box. (See “Slideout
Room Troubleshooting” elsewhere in this
section.)
‘Push-In” Procedure:
•
Open the “slideout” hydraulic line valves on
the pump to relieve hydraulic line pressure.
(See Step 1 - Relieve Hydraulic Line
Pressure” and
photos on previous pages.)
•
DO NOT OPEN THE JACK VALVES ON
THE RESERVOIR SIDE OF THE PUMP.
These regulate the coach leveling jacks.
Lock Screw
Retract Bolt
Crank the Slideout Retract Bolt with
the Ratchet Wrench provided.
CAUTION
The retract bolts must be ‘backed out’ to
their original positions immediately after
the crank-in procedure to avoid damaging
the retract bolts and slideout mechanism
the next time the room is extended.
