need to be changed or adjusted to insure that your door operates as smoothly and
efficiently as it should.
Caution: Do not adjust the lock if the unit is not level.
All doors, with the exception of the 6555 door, are built with a camber in the door. This
camber is designed in the door to assist in obtaining a tight seal at the top and bottom of
the door. To adjust the strike bolt in the rotary lock, loosen the bolt with a 5/8" socket or
box end wrench; move the bolt in the direction needed and re-tighten the bolt to 35 foot
pounds of torque. The door in your recreation vehicle operates much like an automotive
door and must be closed firmly to enable the lock to engage the secondary locking or
fully closed position and to compress the seals in the door. Adjusting the lock to lessen
the effort needed to close the door will cause the door to not seal properly.
•
Locks
- The key cylinder in your locks need to be lubricated on an annual basis or as
needed. Always use powdered graphite, never a petroleum product. The petroleum
product will gum up the cylinder and cause it to not operate smoothly. Apply a light
coating of white lithium grease to the face of the lock bolt to obtain a smooth closing.
•
Hinges
- The hinges on your door should be lubricated annually or as needed with
any high quality spray lubricant.
•
Fiberglass Skin
- To maintain good appearance and long service life, Philips door
skin panels should be washed and cleaned periodically. Cleaning removes the
accumulation of dust and dirt, which can combine with sunlight and wind to attack
exposed surfaces both chemically and abrasively.
The following methods and materials are suggested for cleaning fiberglass door skin
panels. However, users are cautioned to conduct a test in a corner of the door skin to
determine suitability.
=
General Cleaning
- A 10% solution of trisodium phosphate in warm water (not to
exceed 120°F), may be applied in a scrubbing motion, using sponge, brush, or cloth.
Rinse thoroughly after cleaning.
=
Removing Oil Residues or Difficult Substances
- Mineral spirits, applied with a
clean cloth, will aid in removing most oily residues or substances. After using
mineral spirits, clean the door with a mild soap solution to remove any residue of
the mineral spirits.
=
Removing Hard Water Deposits
- A 10% solution of acetic acid in cold water may
be used in the manner described in General Cleaning above. Rinse thoroughly after
cleaning.
=
Waxing, though not mandatory, waxing will help maintain the appearance and
service life of the door. If waxing, use a high quality automotive or recreation
vehicle wax, nonabrasive.
.
NOTE: Use non-corrosive cleaning compounds. Avoid the use of compounds
containing ammonia or chlorine since they may cause the panels to yellow. Do not
use rubbing compounds, as they will etch and damage the panel surface.
