Manual Override
NOTe: Always disconnect battery from system prior to manually operating system. Failure to disconnect
battery can cause electricity to backfeed through the motor and cause serious damage to the
system as well as void the warranty.
The Through Frame Electric Slide-out System comes with a Manual Override system. There are two different
methods for manually extending and retracting the slide-out room. A crank handle extension can be used
outside the chassis main rail at the crank extension with pin (Figs. 1 and 2). A socket and ratchet can be used
inside the main frame on the hex head crank extension (Figs. 3 and 4).
Manual Override - Outside Frame
Locate the crank extension with pin outside of the chassis main rail (Fig. 1). This is where the crank handle
(standard fifth wheel landing gear crank handle or 3/4" socket and ratchet) fits on (Fig. 2) to allow the manual
extension/retraction of the room. Rotate the crank handle clockwise to retract and counterclockwise to
extend slide-out. It is important to note that you DO NOT need to attempt to disengage the motor as the
actuator is "manual ready." Just hook up and crank.
NOTe: Use Extreme Caution when extending and/or retracting room using the manual override feature. It
is possible to operate the slide-out beyond the maximum extension and/or retraction and damage
the slide components, slide room structure or trim components.
NOTe: The gears can be stripped out if the room is manually retracted/extended to its fullest extent and
the operator continues to rotate the manual override. Any damage due to misuse of the Manual
Override feature will disqualify any and all claims to the Limited Warranty.
