operation methods. Most of their components are located behind the
inner slide roof fascias of the unit or under the slide floor.
Electrical Components
All power slide systems operate on 12 volt DC power provided by a
fully charged auxiliary battery optional on some models and converter
(Through a 12-volt distribution load center breakers are provided for each
slide). For best performance, have 120-volt AC power attached to your
coach, feeding the distribution load center. Please operate one Slide
Motor at-a-time.
Because operating the slide-out draws up to 15 amp current
from the battery, some source of supplemental charging
should be operating while extending or retracting the slide-
out.
!
CAUTION
You will find the bedroom slide out to be located above the slide on inside
wall of recreational vehicle.
On the motor is a “brake,” requiring 12 volt DC power to be activated. The
brake is designed to lock the motor, preventing any movement of the slide
out mechanism during travel.
A 20 amp breaker is located in the distribution box, feeding the master
switch and then the operation switch to motor.
Supplement Your Battery by Either One of Two Choices:
1. Hook up a 120-volt AC power cord to recreational vehicle for
converter operation.
2. Use 12-volt power through the tow vehicle to the recreational vehicle
battery(ies).
Either of these methods will help ensure maximum electrical power for
the slide-out motor, as well as maintain your battery.
