Care & Maintenance

DRAINAGE SYSTEM

The drainage system, including the tanks and associated drain piping should be periodically
inspected for road damage. Any deterioration of the sealant around joints and fittings should be
repaired immediately.
Check the operation of the termination valves. If they pull or close with effort, lubricate the shaft
and slide valve with spray silicone. Termination valves that leak should be repaired or replaced as
soon as possible.
Sometimes, a buildup of paper or other material in the inside groove of the termination valve can
obstruct the valve and cause it to seat improperly. If you suspect that this is occurring, the valve
can be removed from the drainage line by removing the four screws that hold it in place and
sliding it out. The valve groove may then be cleaned out with a screwdriver or similar tool.
Replace the valve in the line and reinstall the screws to secure it in place.

TV ANTENNA

To lubricate the elevating gear, apply a liberal amount of silicone spray lubricant to the elevating
gear with the lift in the down position. Run the lift up and down a few times to distribute the
lubricant over the gears.
If rotating the antenna becomes difficult, normal operation can be restored by lubricating the
bearing surface between the rotating gear housing and the base plate. Any spray type silicone
lubricant may be used.
Elevate the antenna and remove the set screw from the rotating gear housing (see illustration).
Spray lubricant into hole and around the edges of the gear housing. Rotate the gear housing until
the lubricant coats the bearing surfaces and the antenna rotates freely.
