SECTION 10
SLIDEOUT/LEVELING
10-8
NOTE: Overfilling the hydraulic reservoir can
cause leakage of oil through the breather
cap.
Hydraulic Fluid Recommendation
Universal multipurpose hydraulic oil is
recommended for use in this system.
DO NOT USE brake fluid or hydraulic jack
oil, which can damage the seals and cause leaks.
NOTE: In an emergency, Dexron type automatic
transmission fluid can be used. However,
transmission fluid contains a red dye that
can cause stains if a leak develops.
GENERAL SLIDEOUT CARE
•
Wipe outer seals occasionally with talc or 303
brand protectant for smooth quiet operation.
•
Clean the floors inside before retracting the
room to avoid vinyl flooring scratches or
carpet pile snags.
•
See your authorized dealer for regular
maintenance and service of the slideout
mechanism.
LEVELING SYSTEM
The 4-point hydraulic leveling system is
designed to minimize problems in selecting a
‘level’ parking site, making setup easier and
faster for you.
The leveling system control panel is located in
the tip-out panel on the lower right dash.
NOTE:When parking at an uneven site, always
park the front of the motor home to the
downhill side. This allows you to level by
raising the front end rather than the rear.
Since only the rear wheels are
locked
while in PARK, raising either one or both
of the rear wheels off the ground could
allow the vehicle to roll off the jacks.
WARNING
Never check for hydraulic fluid leaks
using your hands and/or any other body
part. The leaking fluid is under pressure
and is capable of cutting and penetrating
your skin, resulting in severe injury.
