Shaft Center-Mounted Motors; Operating Precautions - NewMar Scottsdale Class A 2006 Owner's Manual

Shaft center-mounted motors

If the unit is equipped with the K-900
slide out motor which is mounted near
the center of the slide out room, use the
following directions:
1.
Access must be gained to the slide
out motor located in the center of the
slide out room.
2.
The manual extension or retraction requires only a 5/8" socket and ratchet
wrench. By placing the socket on the 5/8" hex nut located on the gear box
of the K-900 motor, the slide out can be moved in either direction by
turning the hex nut.
3.
If the slide out does not move by using the hex nut, the room can also be
extended or retracted by using the procedure described for the shaft end-
mounted motors. If the room is moved using this method, the correct
torque on the 11⁄2" trans-torque nut is 125 foot pounds maximum.
IMPORTANT
The TRANS-TORQUE bushing must be re-tightened to re-couple the slide out
gear motor before moving the coach. This will hold the slide out room in place.
The correct torque on the 11/2" TRANS-TORQUE bushing is 110 foot pounds
maximum. The correct torque on the 11/2" TRANS-TORQUE bushing of the K-
900 motor (center shaft motor) is 125 foot pounds maximum.
Slide outs with either the center or end mounted motors can be moved by
pushing the room the full length of its travel in either direction. This method will
require the assistance of at least two people.

Operating Precautions

WARNING
Before extending the slide out, make certain that there is a minimum of five (5)
feet of clear space on the slide out side of the unit. Prior to extending the room,
be sure to unlock the slide out locking arms. Make sure there are no
obstructions either inside or outside the unit that may interfere with the slide out
extension. Tree branches, bushes or telephone poles can cause extensive
damage to the exterior of the unit.
