SLIDE-OUT ROOMS
(Manual or Motor Driven)
SLIDE-OUT ROOM SETUP AND OPERATION:
This section covers the recommended setup procedure and operation of slide-out rooms
which are available in Skyline trailers. FAILURE TO CAREFULLY FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS COULD CAUSE AN UNSAFE CONDITION THAT MAY RESULT
IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. Your trailer and factory slide-out assembly were de-
signed as a unit; thus, satisfactory performance of both is contingent on the correct setup
procedure as follows:
Prior to extending the slide-out room, the trailer must be unhitched from the tow vehicle
and the trailer must be in its fi nal level position. (See STABILIZATION on Pages 17
and 18). It is highly recommended to use stabilizing jacks or jack stands as mentioned in
the section STABILIZATION. Travel locks are installed either on the top or sides of the
slide-out room to stabilize the room during transit. They must be removed prior to opera-
tion. Be sure that nothing will interfere with the room movement and that all people are
kept clear.
The slide-out room may be a manual crank or operate on a 12-volt system. The 12-volt
system is protected by a 12-volt circuit breaker located in a cabinet near the slide-out
room. The electrical system must have a fully charged 12-volt battery in the wiring
system prior to operating the slide-out. DO NOT OPERATE THE SLIDE-OUT ROOM
WITH THE CONVERTER ONLY. DAMAGE TO THE SLIDE-OUT MOTOR WILL
OCCUR.
To operate the 12-volt electric slide-out, locate the switch near the slide-out room. The
switch is spring-loaded and will return to the OFF position when released. To extend or
retract the slide-out room hold the switch until it reaches its fi nal position then release the
switch. Familiarize yourself with the direction of travel of the room and the correspond-
ing switch direction.
If the slide-out mechanism does not operate due to loss of power or electrical failure, the
slide-out room may be moved manually. Please refer to slide-out room manual in owners
packet for instructions to operate room manually.
NOTE: On sofa slides, it may be necessary to remove an access panel below the sofa to
gain access to slide out mechanism.
On some models a hand crank may be the standard means of operation. To operate the
hand crank, fi rst locate the shaft for the crank handle. It can be found on the exterior near
the bottom center of the slide-out room. When units are supplied with the crank handle,
place the crank handle over the shaft and turn the crank clockwise to retract or counter
clockwise to extend the slide-out room. When units are not supplied with a crank handle
a typical socket wrench may be used.
