4. To move the slide-out, use a cordless power
drill with a 3/8" hexagonal bit on the shaft
extension of the slide-out motor.
5. Rotate the slide-out motor shaft extension
with the power drill until the slide-out comes
to its opened position (FIGURE 94).
6. Once the slide-out is lined up to its opened
position, remove the tool from the motor.
FIGURE 94: SLIDE-OUT MOTOR ROTATION
NOTE
The front slide-out motor is located inside
the 2
nd
baggage compartment while the rear
slide-out motor is accessible from inside the
vehicle, under the bed structure.
CAUTION
Slow down on the closing speed as the slide-
out approaches its extended position. As soon
as the “out limit” stoppers come in contact with
their bearing surface, stop immediately the
power drill rotating movement. Not doing so
could overload the drive mechanism and
cause damage to the reduction gearbox.
7. Finally, the inflatable seal can be re-inflated
by turning the shut-off valve handle
counterclockwise. Check the pressure gage
on the inflatable seal regulator to see if the
pressure is increasing to 10 psi (FIGURE
94).
NOTE
The slide-out control system inhibits
transmission range selection to prevent the
vehicle from moving if the slide-out is not in its
full "IN" position.
