TRAILER SET-UP REQUIREMENTS - GENERAL
Note:
1. Before operating the slide-out room, level the trailer front-to-rear
and side to side.
2. Extend all stabilizer jacks to make solid contact with the ground
and/or on solid blocks. Placing stabilizer jacks onto a hard
surface allows the coach to remain square and assure a good
weather tight seal between the room and trailer sidewall.
BELOW FLOOR SLIDE SYSTEM
Mechanical Components.
Under floor slide-out mechanism steel bars are welded to the frame
members. A “cog” track is welded to bottom side of cross member,
matching with a flat gear attached to drive shaft, “LCS (Lippert
Component System.) With “DVS” (Dexter Venture System) uses a
gear with round holes stamped into a cross member. Operation on
both is identical. As motor turns, a ram moves the gear on the track.
A cross shaft, front to rear ram connects the second ram, moving
the opposite end of slide. Mechanism operates the same, flush or
standard floor.
ABOVE FLOOR SLIDE-OUT (ALL BRANDS AND TYPES)
This system also operates on an inside ram assembly on a track
moved by a cog gear. Ram is attached to the floor and side wall
with a moving track attached to the slide-out. On larger slides, two
(2) rams will be used with cross shaft connecting the 2 rams. A
steel frame carriage style is used on some models, doing same
function generally as a 12’ slide. Access to these components is
inside of coach, under slide floor.
BEDROOM SLIDE OUT
This slide assembly is placed and is attached to the floor of the front
bedroom slide. This includes all hardware, motor gears, shaft, track
and framework. Two rollers are also attached to sidewall at opening
point, to give ease in slide out movement, in and out.
OPEN : Hold operation switch until room seals tightly on the exterior
of the unit. DO NOT distort or bend the exterior flanges or interior
fascia by holding the switch in the “ON” position.
