CHECKING HYDRAULIC OIL
LEVEL
See the Leveling System 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 hydraulic oil level should be checked
when the vehicle is first purchased, and then
twice a year - or more often if an oil leak develops
in the system.
The hydraulic pump is located inside a
passenger side mid-coach compartment. In some
cases, there is a removable access panel inside
the compartment that must be removed to access
the pump.
Jacks and Slideout Positions
To get an accurate indication of oil level:
•
Leveling Jacks must be UP
•
Slideout Rooms must be IN
Checking Dipstick
The hydraulic oil level is checked with a
dipstick built into the breather/filler cap on top of
the oil reservoir, which is part of the hydraulic
pump/manifold assembly.
NOTE: Always clean away any dirt and debris
from the top of the reservoir before
removing the breather cap to avoid entry
of debris and contamination of hydraulic
oil in the reservoir, which could lead to
pump failure or other problems.
NOTICE
•
Do not try to drive vehicle unless
“TRAVEL” light is glowing with ignition
switch on.
•
Do not try to drive the vehicle until the
air suspension system has built up
sufficient pressure if you have used
the coach leveling system or have
used the DUMP button to manually
exhaust the air suspension system.
•
Do not rely only upon the warning
lights to indicate when jacks are up. It
is the owner’s responsibility to check
that all jacks are up before moving the
coach.
