described below. The winch is generally stored
beneath the dinette seat or in a cargo compart-
ment on the passenger side of the coach.
Step 1 - Relieve Hydraulic Line Pressure
·
Open the slideout hydraulic solenoid valves
to release hydraulic line pressure and let fluid
bypass into the fluid reservoir. The pump is
located beneath the coach on a bracket
mounted to the coach frame behind the front
bumper of the vehicle. The valves can be
reached best by lying on your back and reach-
ing up between the mounting brackets, or
reaching down through the hood opening.
NOTE: The hydraulic pump is equipped with two
types of hydraulic solenoid valves
shown. The leveling jack solenoids have
a T-handle on the valve shaft that can be
turned by hand. The slideout room sole-
noid has a small 1/4” nut at the end of the
valve shaft that requires you to use a 1/
4” nut driver tool that is provided in your
InfoCase.
See the HWH Operator’s manual includ-
ed in your InfoCase for specific instruc-
tions on which valves to open for front or
rear slideout rooms and what additional
precautions to follow.
·
The hydraulic pump is located between the
front frame extensions between the radiator
and grille/bumper area.
·
Open the two slideout solenoid valves (with
1/4” nuts on the ends) to relieve hydraulic
line pressure. (See Step 1 under “Slideout
Room Emergency Crank-In” on previous
page.)
DO NOT LOOSEN NUTS MORE
THAN 3 FULL TURNS
