the room either in or out completely. If the
slideout system is supplied with a gearbox
override (optional), use the crank handle to
move the room.

person apply pressure to the wrench/ratchet
and return the brake lever to its engaged po-
sition. This ensures the room is locked into
a sealed position.

slideout room and take the unit to an autho-
rized dealer for service.
Refer to the Power Gear® Electric Slideout Operation Manual for detailed operation, safety

Power Gear Slim Rack Slideout System
The Power Gear® Slim Rack slideout is typically used for slide-
outs 144” long and longer.
It is operated by a 12VDC electric motor.
The system is equipped with a manual override allow-
ing the room to be extended / retracted in the event of
a power loss.
The system has a controller (Fig 1) with programma-
ble stops that stop the motor when the room is fully
extended or retracted.
The controller has the ability to detect faults for easier troubleshooting.
A wall mounted touchpad allows room movement and provides end user feedback.
Operating the Slideout
The slideout will not function until the stops are properly set or
faults are cleared.
A solid “ON” GREEN LED
indicates room movement.
The RED LED indicates a fault or a problem
with the system.
(Refer to the
Fault Diagnostics / Troubleshooting
).
Prior to moving the slideout room set the parking brake.
To ensure ample voltage is being supplied to the slideout sys-
tem motor, power should be supplied from one of the following
sources:
Attach the RV to shore power.
Have the motorhome engine running.
Turn on the generator.
Extending/retracting the room:
1. Engine or generator must be running, or plugged into shore
power.
2. Transmission must be in park or neutral (if applicable).
3. Set the parking brake and level the unit.
4. Remove transit bars (if so equipped) if extending the room;
install if retracting.
