SECTION 10 –
SLIDEOUT ROOMS AND LEVELING
•
Insert the crank handle into the gear shaft
socket, aligning the notches in the crank
handle with the pins inside the socket as
indicated. Insert the second crank at the other
end of the room.
NOTE: It may be necessary to move the crank
handle from side to side slightly to fit
onto the shaft.
•
Each crank will only move the arm that it is
inserted into, so you will need to alternate
between crank handles at each end to move
the room in or out.
•
The most effective way for one person to
retract the room is to “walk” the room in – that
is, to crank one side until it is just slightly
ahead of the other, then crank the opposite
side in until it is slightly ahead of the previous
one. Crank both sides alternately and equally
to avoid wedging the room (
see following
Caution
).
•
If help is available, a second person cranking
on the other handle simultaneously will
greatly speed up the process.
•
Crank the room in until it is just “snugged up.”
Do not overcrank or you could damage the
crank or gear assembly.
•
Fasten slideout room travel latching device (if
equipped) inside the coach before driving the
vehicle.
•
See your dealer for service of the slideout
mechanism before using again.
Further Information
See the Slideout Room operating guide
included in your InfoCase for further instructions
and troubleshooting information.
SLIDEOUT EMERGENCY
RETRACTION - ELECTRIC
(Front Slideout Room)
-If Equipped
If the slideout mechanism is malfunctioning
and the room will not retract using the control
switch, you may need to access the motor/gear
assembly and manually crank the room in to the
travel position.
The front slideout room has two motor/
gearbox units, which are located near the
“ceiling” of the storage compartments beneath
each end of the slideout room.
Crank-In Procedure
•
Disconnect the motor power lead from the
wiring harness (repeat for motor at other end
of room).
•
Disengage the motor brakes, which appear as
a flat “square” protrusion on the protective
boot at the end of each motor. Move the brake
lever slightly – about 1/8 turn counter-
clockwise (to left when facing end of motor).
CAUTION
Never crank one side more than 2 inches
(50 mm) ahead of the other while
retracting or extending.
