ADJUSTMENTS (IN/OUT POSITION)

ELECTRIC

Electric (In Position)

• Locate actuator coming through the frame.
• On the end of the actuator there is a
threaded shaft mounted to the drive bracket
with 3 nuts and a stop can.
• Loosen the ¾” threaded jam nut using 1 ⅛”
wrench on the outside of the stop can. Actuator
• Screw the can out or in, and then tighten
down the nut – this will change the location Jam Nut Stop Can
of your seal going to the “in” position.

Electric (Out Position)

• Locate actuator coming through the frame.
• On the end of the actuator there is a
threaded shaft mounted to the bracket with
3 nuts and a stop can.
• Move the ¾” jam nut using a 1 ⅛” wrench
and the ¾” nylock nut using a 1 1/16” wrench
in the same direction. This will change the Stop Can
location of your seal going to the “out” Jam Nut
position.
• Make sure all nuts are tight. Nylock Nut

ADJUSTMENTS (IN/OUT POSITION)

HYDRAULIC

Hydraulic (In Position)

• Locate cylinder coming through the frame.
• Run room partially out.
Jam Nut (B) Jam Nut (A)
• Hold jam nut (A) in place with wrench.
• Adjust nylock nut towards the bracket if the room does not
seal or adjust the nylock nut away from the bracket if the
room is too tight and damages the fascia.
Hydraulic (Out Position)
• Locate cylinder coming through the frame.
• Run room completely out.
• Check the inside fascia and seal positioning.
• Partially retract room. Nylock Nut 2” – 3” Free Travel
• Loosen jam nut (A) from jam nut (B) and back off jam nut
(A) to give jam nut (B) room for adjustment.
• Adjust jam nut (B) away from the bracket if the room
extends too far and damages the inside fascia or adjust
jam nut (B) towards the bracket if the room does not seal.
• Tighten jam nut (A) to jam nut (B).

NOTE: Make small adjustments, running the room in after

each adjustment until proper seal is achieved.

SYNCHRONIZING ROOM TRAVEL

Room travel (both sides of the room traveling the same Idler Arm
distance) can be adjusted with the specially-designed
synchronizing bracket mounted on the idler arm. The
idler arm is the one that is not powered. The drive arm is
the one that has the cylinder attached. If one side of the
room fails to seal, adjust as follows:

• Loosen bolt on top of the idler arm.

• Push or pull room (on the idler arm) to align with the
drive side.

VERTICAL ADJUSTMENTS

• Loosen 2 carriage bolts on each bracket located at the end of each arm.
• Loosen jam nut.
• For vertical adjustment turn vertical adjustment bolt up or down to locate room height.
• Once room height is located, tighten carriage bolts and jam nut.

HORIZONTAL ADJUSTMENTS
• Loosen carriage bolts on each
bracket located at the end of each Idler Arm Assembly
arm.
• Room is ready to be positioned
horizontally by pushing on the
outside, sidewall or by using a
prying device inserted into the
opening between the room and
coach.
NOTE: All slide-out room adjustments
must be performed by certified service
technicians. Adjustments made by
non-certified persons may void any
and all warranty claims. Use caution
when using prying device so seals do Carriage Bolt

MANUAL OVERRIDE (OUTSIDE FRAME)

ELECTRIC
• Disconnect battery to avoid back feed.
• Locate the crank extension with pin outside of the chassis main rail.
This is where the crank handle fits on to allow the manual
extension/retraction of the room.
• Rotate the crank handle clockwise to retract and counterclockwise
to extend slide-out. Do not attempt to disengage the motor as the
actuator is “manual ready.”
NOTE: Always disconnect battery from system prior to manually
operating system. Failure to disconnect battery can cause electricity
to backfeed through the motor and cause serious damage to the
system as well as void the warranty.
Use EXTREME CAUTION when extending and/or retracting room
using the manual override feature. It is possible to operate the slide-
out beyond the maximum extension and/or retraction and damage
the slide components, slide room structure or trim components.
The gears can be stripped out if the room is manually
retracted/extended to its fullest extent and the operator continues
to rotate the manual override. Any damage due to misuse of the
Manual Override feature will disqualify any and all claims to the
Limited Warranty.

MANUAL OVERRIDE (INSIDE FRAME)

ELECTRIC
• Disconnect battery to avoid back feed.
• Locate the crank extension with pin outside of the chassis main rail or
locate the hex head crank extension on the gear box at the actuator.
• Using the crank handle or 3/4” socketed tool, rotate clockwise to
retract and counterclockwise to extend the slide-out. Do not attempt to
disengage the motor as the actuator is “manual ready.”
NOTE: Always disconnect battery from system prior to manually
operating system. Failure to disconnect battery can cause electricity to
backfeed through the motor and cause serious damage to the system
as well as void the warranty.
Use EXTREME CAUTION when extending and/or retracting room using

MAINTENANCE

Loosen Bolt
Squeaking Gear Packs Lubrication
• Loosen both gear pack bolts until tension
is off of the gear pack.
• Apply dry silicone onto gear pack drive
shaft at lubrication points.
NOTE: Do not lubricate rack or pinion gear
teeth, lubricate drive shaft only.
• Extend and retract slide-out arms several
times to work lubricant through gear pack.
