Section 5: Slideout Systems
If the room still does not move when the switch is pressed, follow the steps below to
manually override the slideout room:
Turn the Main Power OFF. The override will not work if it has power going to it. Do
1.
not work on the system unless the battery is disconnected.
2.
Locate the slideout controller. There are two versions of the controller.
Version 1, unplug the 6 pin wiring harness from the controller.
3.
Version 2, remove one of the motor leads, either the motor I or motor II lead from the
4.
controller.
5.
Locate the slideout motor (Fig. 1) mounted to one of the slideout rails. Some models
may require removal of the underbelly or cover to access the motor. In a bedroom
slideout, it may be located under the bed.
6.
Rotate the brake lever, on the backside of the motor, counter-clockwise (looking from
the rear of the motor) about 1/8 of a turn to the released position (Fig. 2). This will
release the brake that holds the room in place.
7.
Locate the manual override for the slideout system (Fig. 1).
8.
The room is now free to move. Using either a 5/8" or 3/4" wrench or socket, crank
the room either in or out completely. If the slideout system is supplied with a gearbox
override (optional), use the crank handle to move the room.
9.
When the rooms is fully in or out have one person apply pressure to the wrench/ratchet
and return the brake lever to its en-
gaged position. This ensures the room
is locked into a sealed position.
10. Install the transit bars (if so equipped)
to the slideout room and take the unit
to an authorized dealer for service.
Refer to the Power Gear® Electric Slideout
Operation Manual for detailed operation,
