SECTION 2
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
Travel Straps (Front Slideout Room)
The Travel Straps
must be released before
attempting to extend the room
or damage to the
coach will result.
The travel straps are designed only to help
keep the room extension secured against the
coach sidewall to maintain an effective weather
seal while the vehicle is in motion. They are not
designed to withstand the force exerted by the
hydraulic extension mechanism and will not pre-
vent extension of the room.
Travel straps are located on the floor near the
ends of the slideout room.
To Release:
·
Pull the strap buckle outward and up to re-
lease tension on strap.
·
Pull a short length of the excess strap back
through the buckle to provide sufficient
slack.
·
Unhook the strap end pegs from the mooring
brackets on the floor and wall edge. Store
straps in location of your choice. (Under the
couch is one choice.)
To Fasten Straps:
·
Hook the strap end pegs into the mooring
brackets.
·
Flip buckle downward and press toward strap
until it “snaps” snugly into place against the
strap.
·
If a strap is loose or too tight after closing the
buckle, release the buckle and pull the loose
end of the strap in or out to adjust tension as
needed. Then reclose the buckle.
To Extend SlideOut Rooms:
Keep all persons clear of the slideout
room and moving parts while extend-
ing or retracting. Do not occupy the
slideout room while it is being
extended or retracted.
Check to be sure the exterior storage
compartment doors below the slide-
out room extension are closed before
extending or retracting the room to
avoid possible damage to the finish of
the doors.
