SECTION 10
SLIDEOUT / LEVELING

Class A
4. The slotted end of the tool must engage with
the pin in the endshaft on the slideout gear
assembly. See arrow in close-up detail.
5. Crank the ratchet wrench clockwise (to the
right) to retract the room. The tool will extend
nearly a foot out of the bed base at first, but
will be drawn into the bed base as the room is
retracted. This is a slow process that will take
some time and quite a few turns of the wrench.
6. As the room retracts, the bed base will move
away from the gear endshaft, which will
eventually cause the tool to lose contact with
the shaft. When this happens you must raise
the bed, remove the access cover to access the
gear endshaft, and continue using the wrench
and hex shaft only as shown.
GENERAL SLIDEOUT CARE
•
Wipe outer seals occasionally with talc or 303
brand protectant for smooth quiet operation.
•
Clean the floors inside before retracting the
room to avoid vinyl flooring scratches or
carpet pile snags.
•
Be sure there are no obstruction items at end
of bed or behind the driver seat or in
compartments. Some items could be crushed
or cause damage to floor covering or cabinets
when the room is retracted.
See your authorized dealer for regular
maintenance and service of the mechanism.
LEVELING SYSTEM
The hydraulic leveling system control pad is
located on the lower left side of the dash.
The leveling system makes selecting a parking
site easier and faster by reducing the effect of
uneven ground. Hydraulic jacks raise the affected
low corners of the coach to make leveling “set
up” faster and easier for you.
