CHECKING HYDRAULIC OIL
LEVEL
See the Leveling System/Room Extension
Operator’s Manual in your InfoCase for complete
maintenance instructions and information.
All maintenance should be done as part of the
normal servicing of the coach.
The oil level should be checked when the
vehicle is first purchased, and then twice a year -
more often if there is an oil leak in the system.
The hydraulic pump is located under the
entrance step.
Jacks and Slideout Positions
To get an accurate indication of oil level, all
leveling Jacks must be UP and slideout rooms
must be positioned as follows for each model.
Checking Dipstick
The oil level is checked and filled through the
breather cap located on the top side of the power
unit oil reservoir. The oil reservoir is part of the
pump/manifold assembly.
Clear any dirt and debris away from the
breather/filler cap before removing.
The oil level should be between the two marks
on the breather cap dipstick shown in the
following illustration.
Overfilling the tank can
cause leakage of hydraulic oil through the
breather cap.
NOTE: Clean any debris from the top of the
reservoir before removing the breather
cap to check the oil level.
Before returning the breather cap to the
reservoir, remove any dirt, grease, paint
chips or other debris from the dipstick
including any debris inside the 1/4” nut
driver.
