Step 2A - Attach Winch and Crank Room
Inward (Models with Standard Riser Slide-
outs)
· Remove the winch from its storage area and
hook onto lip of top entrance step as shown.
· Attach the hook end of the winch belt through
the looped end of seat belt material fastened
to the floor of the slideout room.
· Be sure the winch ratchet pawl is in the lock-
ing position (against the gear teeth) before
cranking.
Cranking the winch handle clockwise slowly,
a few "clicks" at a time, until the room is fully
retracted. Allow about 10 minutes to crank
room in fully.
NOTE: Attempting to crank the room in too
quickly will raise pressure in the hydrau-
lic fluid lines and make cranking more
difficult.
· Leave the winch and strap in place while
driving until slideout is serviced.
Step 3 - Prep for Travel
· Fasten both slideout room travel straps.
Leave the hydraulic pump valve nuts
loosened while winch and strap are connect-
ed.
NOTE: Overtightening the valve nuts may cause
internal damage to the valves.
DRIVING YOUR MOTOR HOME
· See an authorized Winnebago Industries
dealer for service of the room extension sys-
tem before using again.
Step 2B - (For Models with Flat Floor Slide-
out)
· A wheel (lug) nut wrench is used to crank the
room inward. You may use the wrench sup-
plied wth the coach (in one of the storage
compartments) or any type of lug wrench of
the same nut size.
· Crank-in bolts are located on the outboard
mounting plates of the slideout room as
shown. These plates are located at both ends
of the room inside the StoreMore
ment doors.
· Remove the locking pin from the crank-in
bolt shafts as shown before trying to turn the
bolts.
· After removing the pin locks, fit the lug
wrench socket onto the bolt head and begin
