LEVELING JACKS
It is very important that you read the leveling system manufacturer's manual before operating leveling
jacks for the first time.
The jacks need to be kept in good condition. In rainy, snowy, or icy weather the jacks may become caked with mud
and/or ice causing problems with its operations. Periodically check the leveling jacks, use water to spray away the
mud or break away the ice before you try to use them.
The leveling system should be cycled once a month or whenever the vehicle is used to keep the system in operating
smoothly.
At the beginning of the season check the oil level in the jacks and check the hydraulic lines and wiring for damage and
wear. It is advisable to check the oil again before you leave on a trip.
Yearly check the framework for rust or damage. Periodically inspect the hoses and lines.
Before moving the vehicle make sure the jacks are completely stored. Never move the vehicle with the jacks down
on the ground.
Refer to your owners-manual for the proper procedures for manually retracting your jacks should you lose
power to the pump. A handle is provided to perform this task.
SLIDE OUT MECHANISMS
Your coach is equipped with electric slide out systems to move the slide rooms in and out. The slide out system is
powered by your batteries. Your batteries are very important to the operating system. Maintaining your batteries is
crucial. The batteries should be fully charged, and the cable terminals and battery posts should be clean to avoid erratic
operations due to low voltage. The switch for the 12-volt electrical service is located on the side panel of the counter in
the step well area.
The slide mechanism must be kept in good condition. Watch closely as you extend the room to make sure the slides
are not binding. To move the slide room in or out hold the button continuously until the room has reached its inner
or outermost position.
OPERATING
The slides are controlled through the multiplex system. Please make yourself familiar with the use of this system.
Before you extend the slide room, make sure the level jacks are in place and the unit is level.
If the unit is not
level the mechanism can bind and if the weight is not distributed properly the slide-out can lean.
These types of situations can damage the slide out mechanism.
By using a level (small bubble type should work) either on a counter, dining room table, or other areas in the RV
can help assure the vehicle and the slide rooms are level.
When you are parking the RV, make sure that the slide out can move freely and that the area is clear of any
obstructions. Watch closely as you extend the room.
Refer to your owner’s manual on the proper procedures for manually extending or retracting your slides
should you lose power to the actuator.
Before moving check around the inside slide room area to ensure that personal items such as ceramic flowerpots,
small tables, plants, etc. are not going to fall as the unit moves out.
A manual override is installed to assist you in case there is a failure with the electrical power. Refer to your
manual for more information on this feature.
