SECTION 2
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
·
Do not open any of the four large T-handled
valves on the opposite end of the pump.
These regulate the coach leveling jacks
.
Step 2 - Attach Winch and Crank Room
Inward
·
Remove the register from the floor heat duct
and anchor the winch in the floor. Insert the
winch retainer bracket into the duct cutout in
the floor as shown.
NOTE: Be sure the bracket extensions face away
from the slideout room as shown for
proper support while cranking.
NOTE:
Banquette Option only:
If your coach is
equipped with the banquette option, the
winch will not have a floor duct bracket.
The winch is anchored using a belt pro-
vided beneath the banquette, which at-
taches to the “tail strap” on the winch
assembly.
·
Insert the winch strap hook into the sewn loop
end of the strap beneath the couch.
·
Be sure the winch ratchet pawl is in the lock-
ing position (against the gear teeth) before
cranking.
·
Crank the winch handle clockwise slowly, a
few “clicks” at a time, 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 hydrau-
lic fluid lines and make cranking more
difficult.
·
Unhook the winch and return the winch and
straps to storage locations. Release the strap
by putting slight pressure clockwise on the
crank handle, then moving the ratchet pawl to
the free-wheel position (away from gear
teeth).
Step 3 - Secure Travel Straps and Close
Hydraulic Line Valves
·
Fasten the slideout room Travel Straps.
·
Close the hydraulic pump solenoid valves
completely.
NOTE: Close the valves snugly, but do not over-
tighten. Overtightening may cause inter-
nal damage to the valves.
·
See your dealer for service of the room exten-
sion system before using again.
Bedroom Slideout Emergency
Crank-In - 36’ and 38’ Models
In the unlikely event that your bedroom slide-
out fails to retract using the power switch, check
for obvious causes first, such as ignition key not
in On/ACC, park brake not applied, leveling sys-
tem power off, or a burned out fuse on the chassis
fuse block. (See “Troubleshooting” on page 2-
19.)
Use provided 1/4” nut driver to turn nut
counterclockwise 3 turns only.
