Slideout maintenance
While the slideout room is extended, the outside surfaces of the room and mechanism may collect dirt and debris.
The slideout seals are not designed to remove the debris
• When you retract the slideout, any debris on the outside of the room, is brought inside your RV.
BEFORE retracting the slideout(s):
• Inspect the outside surfaces for snow, ice, dirt, dust, insect nests, etc.
• Check for standing water on the slideout topper awning
• Wipe the outside surfaces of the room and mechanism dry and/or clean as much as possible.
If your slideout system:
• Stalls out before reaching end of stroke, or
• Does NOT close and seal tightly.
Contact your dealer or Vanleigh RV Customer Service for trouble shooting and/or repair.
LIPPERT ELECTRIC SLIDEOUT SYSTEM
Extending and retracting the slideout room is powered by the Lippert Through Frame Electric Slideout System. It is
a rack and pinion guide system with a motor driven ball screw actuator. The actuator is equipped with an automatic
clutching system. The Through Frame Electric Slideout System is a negative ground system.
Manual operation
The Lippert Through Frame Electric Slideout System comes with a manual override. Locate the 1" round Slideout
Override Access Hole in the skirt metal on the opposite side (of the RV) from the room that you are trying to move.
• Insert the crank handle extension.
• Turn clockwise to retract the slideout room.
• Turn counter-clockwise to extend the slideout room.
Use EXTREME CAUTION if using the manual override feature to extend and/or retract the room.
• DO NOT hold the slide room switch past the point the room is fully extended/retracted or damage
may occur
• For the weather seals to be effective, the slideout room MUST be completely extended/retracted.
• BEFORE operating your slide systems, review all important safety alerts.
