SECTION 8
CAMPING & OPERATING
After the slideout
extended, verify the
corners of the black
rubber seal are set up
correctly. The corners of
this seal are cut at a 45°
angle. The top of the
seal must overlap the
side of the seal to avoid
the possibility of water
penetration.
Retracting the slideout room
Remove all objects from in front of the room.
Press the "IN" section of the switch and hold it
until the motor stops. Install the travel bars in
the proper location.
Maintenance
WARNING
Do not work attempt to manually override
the slideout system until the 12-volt DC
(house batteries) and 120-volt AC(shore
line power cord) have been disconnected.
Your slideout system is designed to require
very little maintenance. When the slideout is
extended, visually inspect the inner slide rail
assemblies. Check for excess build-up of dirt
or other foreign material; remove any debris
that may be present. If the system squeaks or
makes any noise, apply a coat of lightweight oil
to the drive shaft and roller areas. Remove
excess oil so dirt does not build-up.
On motorhomes with a flush floor slideout, a
light coat of silicone spray is recommended
one time per year. To apply the spray, lift the
carpet flap. Using a light coat of spray, make
one pass all along the glide bar. It is
recommended that this be done prior to each
camping season.
This system contains a pre-lubed bearing that
is lubricated when the room is moved in and
out. Do not spray oil or grease on the rails
while the room is extended.
