UNIT MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
If the winch assembly cable is not binding, the winch assembly can be removed following the
replacement procedure in the next section. After the winch assembly has been removed from
the shelter, remove the handle retainer, assembly and brake cover. If the brake disks or any
other part is cracked or broken within the winch assembly, the winch assembly requires
replacement.
Shelter and Awning Fabric: Any tears in the fabric or awning that permit water to penetrate
the shelter require maintenance. Follow the repair procedure below.
Exterior Drain Hose: Locate the source of drain hose leakage. If at the connector, check the
connector gasket. If warped or cut, replace the gasket. If the leak is in the hose part of the
assembly, the hose assembly will need to be replaced.
REPLACE
Safety Strap: The side wing of the shelter must be in the lowered position to replace a safety
strap. Unbolt the strap from the shelter and retain the hardware. Install a new strap and bolt it
in place.
Winch Cable: The side wing of the shelter must be in the lowered position to replace the winch
cable. If the cable is badly damaged, use a forklift as a backup for the winch. Remove three
wing jacks from the Mechanical Room if not already in place and install according to the setup
procedure to support the side floor.
WARNING
Use gloves while removing the winch cable from the winch drum.
Remove the two access panels for the winch assembly and pulleys located to the left of the
personnel access door. With one person using the winch crank and another person outside the
kitchen area, unwind the cable from the winch while pulling the excess cable to the outside of
the shelter. Remove the cable-retaining nuts on the winch assembly reel and while one person
guides the cable through the shelter the other person coils the cable outside the shelter beside
the side floor.
With one person guiding the cable through the tube of the side floor, the other person pulls the
cable through the tube and coils the cable on the Mechanical Room end of the side floor.
Continue pulling the cable through the tube until all the cable is coiled outside the Mechanical
Room.
Locate the black plastic plug located in the upper back interior corner of the Mechanical Room
on the same side as the cable being replaced. Remove the plug and locate the steel ferrule
cable end in the hole. With a needle nose pliers, grasp the steel ferrule cable end and pull it
clear of the wall. Continue pulling and guiding the cable through the hole.
